I am THRILLED Ms. Johnson is out, I love what you do, but we have to stop going along with rhetoric that results in longer sentences and harsher punishments, in addition, as John Pfaff demonstrated - can't solve mass incarceration w/o dealing w. violence @JohnFPfaff

Also the distinction is pretty arbitrary. As one guy I worked w/ in prison joked, "man, these MFs call me nonviolent...because I had bad aim."
-
Yes, of the other way - a multitude of crimes are labeled as "violent" that involved no physical interaction (my crime, for instance, was online and non-contact but is labeled as violent).
-
Absolutely - that side is a given. Whole distinction needs to vanish.

Amen brother, so much damage done by these binaries that let people decide who it is okay to be brutal too

This is incredibly important but I totally resist the distinction between so-called “non-violent and violent offenders,” as it demonizes those who have committed violent crimes. Who knows their trauma and circumstances and we need to pardon them too.

Victimless crimes should not be against the law. It's a remnant of an era where it was thought drugs would render someone incapable of work and would become a public charge.

Dear Marshall Project, with love + respect, stop reinforcing the political distinction that results in real damage to all the people left bleeding under the bus tires of violent-non-violent distinctions. It is not okay + often results in anyone considered "violent" treated worsepic.twitter.com/xlwF92kFbd

A dramatic spike in suicides between 2008 and 2010 can be linked with the economic crisis, according to a study published today in the British Journal of Psychiatry.pic.twitter.com/CCJWKHXfn0

Disengage the rule of unfounding and work from that cleaner baseline and see which of ANYTHING that is done to the public, particularly women and say, for instance

The over incarceration of America’s OWN citizens is directly related to how WE failed to object to war hawks consistently pressuring congress & the Prez into wars when peaceful options were available. Today it’s irrelevant who’s in the bullseye. CRAZY!
