Read this. The whole thing. A discriminatory justice system and the underpunishment of violent crime should be quite easily and relatively cheaply fixed.
I’ve been visiting my granddaughter and thought I would post some while there… but I forgot my login and password. oops.
More tomorrow. I’m exhausted now.
I’m going to give this blogging thing another go after neglecting Pajama Pundits for so long. That name is so 2004, ya know?
