The problem is that quality of life offenders, such as subway fare beaters or squeegee-men are also likely to be violent offenders. They start with a disrespect for the law and go on to other things.

So, it's o.k. to smoke dope and then drive and kill someone, is that what you are saying, I think so, because you were NOT very specific....do I need to go on? It appears I may need to....

That's why I proved the gun situation, there are THOUSANDS of scenarios.....yet you were not able to figure that out...

So the guy wants to increase government policing the nation, but not the minorities?

Do you think that because you consider blacks subhuman; people who cannot live in a civilized society?

Maybe you just don't understand what Bernie was saying.

White guy gets stopped for an ounce of weed: punishment is a fine and parole.
Black guy gets stopped for an ounce of weed: punishment is three years in jail.

Maybe that makes sense to you...
