Instead of sending drug addicts to prison, let's spend the money that it takes to house and feed them on drug rehabilitation. Most people in prison today should NOT be there. If the goverment keeps going at this rate, by 2020 half of the U.S. population will be behind bars. We have a government that is OUT OF CONTROL! Mandatory sentencing is a bad mistake made by an idiot named RONALD REAGAN. And it has not slowed drug use one bit. Lock up one person who sells, two more takes his place. The government will never win the war on drugs. And it was RONALD'S generation that started all this mess. Write to your representatives and ask them to stop mandatory sentencing. they do not stop crime.

My nephew was sent back to prison because of a violation of his parole. He was fishing and stayed half an hour too late and had a knife on him that was not within the allowance size of his parole.
He had just finished electrician's school and an advanced course in computer's and electricity. He was waiting for a job to open up.
Our family believes he was doing well and had turned around. It seems like such a waste of taxes and also a waste of his life.
