How is this news exactly? Moore says stuff like this all the time and it's never led to anything or inspired anyone to do anything.

As long as they're all invited to stay at Moore's house until they sort themselves out!

Yep, part of his hypocricy: Moore's bodyguard arrested - tribunedigital-chicagotribune

I've heard him in interviews before where he talks about the disparity between the pay of CEO's and factory guys while he makes millions on his films while paying scale to his workers.

Well, that is different.

Remember how he did not hire union stagehands for his films? Big. Fat. Hypocrite.

does he want whites that are jailed on drug charges to remain in jail but not blacks?

Anyways, if you release everyone that's jailed on drug charges I believe the white-black prison gap will actually be WIDENED even more...if all we have are murderers,robbers,rapists,assaulters, etc the black rate should go up even more.

No, he wants drugs decriminalized, like many of us.

Did you really just make an argument to continue the war on drugs so that prisons can maintain a balance of violent criminals versus non-violent? You think decisions about what should be legal and illegal should be based on keeping a 'just right' prison mix?
