WICKED, EVIL AND DIABOLICALLY CRUEL
I totally agree with your thoughtful editorial: "THREE-STRIKES LAW STRIKES
OUT" (3-17-03).
Our wicked, evil and diabolically cruel laws that send men, women and
children to prison for life for such crimes as stealing video tapes,
bicycles or golf clubs preclude the words liberty and justice rightfully
belonging on any U. S. currency or monuments.
Our counterproductive war on drugs and diabolically evil three-strikes laws
have transformed the former "Land of Liberty" into the most incarcerated
nation in history. With fewer than 5% of the world's population, the U. S.
has greater than 25% of the world's prisoners.
Not exactly a record we should be proud of.
