I agree, but one thing too is look at what the crimes that they are being held for and you will also see a systematic discrimination in sentencing between whites and blacks for the same crime. IMO non-felony drug charges shouldn't result in time served, the same with non violent crime. These things would change the color of jails and prisons drastically
Non-whites, unattractive people, overweight women, immigrants on average get sentenced for much longer periods of time than people who aren't those things, all other conditions being the same.

Did you listen to the last 3 State of the Union speeches from Obama? All about implementing new programs that will help the downtrodden. The liberals just don't have the votes.
Republicans are the best trolls in history.
All the GOP is doing is making the Legislature into a joke and something to be worked around.
