@CoryBooker 60+ yrs of giant Govt social experiment has been a HUGE failure for black families! Will career politician have guts to fix it?
@CoryBooker Have you heard of @scholarCHIPS ? Wonderful org started by @YazzieSpeaks - scholarships for children of incarcerated parents.
@CoryBooker -Agreed, sir. At the same time, But be concerned about #PlannedParenthood. Intro a bill to defund them. Callous butchers!.
@CoryBooker Sen. please read on restorative justice. Example of success in New Zealand: http://www.tikkun.org/nextgen/twenty-years-of-restorative-justice-in-new-zealand …

@CoryBooker make punishments more severe! There must be stronger deterrents.
@jodyph1 Those do not work at all.
@dnp_david yes Singapore has almost no crime. No parents in jail. I lived there I know. Punishments are severe! Everyone is aware. No crime.
@jodyph1 Comparing Singapore and the United States is apples and oranges. Comparing their criminal justice systems: also apples and oranges.
@jodyph1 Because the racial history of the United States (and its criminal justice system) does not resemble Singapore.
@CoryBooker @CarolynLeCroyMP Not just future generations - plenty to be done to assist current children living this nightmare
@CoryBooker ....Wow I thought it was more than that....I'm actually surprised it's that low.
@CoryBooker The justice system is too hasty to incarcerate black people for minor issues. Situations are escalated to gain conviction.
@CoryBooker Exactly why we need to fully fund our public schools, educate and build the whole child. Schools can't keep operating with less.
@CoryBooker did you ever think on November 6, 2007 you'd be posting this today?
