    ⓘ Dogs don't have thumbs‏ @MorlockP 14 May 2018

    The war on drugs is terrible, and it should be stopped. ...but that's not going to empty out the jails and prisons. Most incarcerated people committed real-actual-even-libertarians-agree-they're-crimes crimes https://www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/pie2016.html …pic.twitter.com/o60Ribsy79

        2/ Further, many of those arrested for drugs are involved in drugs only BECAUSE they are illegal. They have few skills & seek out areas of employment that return well for the labor invested Today that's drugs, but legalize drugs, and the profits would fall and they'd move on >

        3/ and I bet we'd see an uptick in the number of property crimes (stealing cars, burglary, etc.)

        Replying to @MorlockP

        the high ratio of pretrial detention to convicted does indicate some significant fuckery; if anything, fixing the justice system to remedy that would be a much bigger deal (if that's even possible in current society)

        I think a lot of places move inmates from local to state facilities once they're convicted.

        I wonder why the ratio is so much higher in federal prisons? States don't persecute the war on drugs as much?

        Everything you say is, sadly, true. We are now seeing the intersection of all these policies in Canada. Government is trialling a needle exchange program... in prisons! If anything should be a clue...https://twitter.com/DavidKMagnus/status/996217018608074752?s=19 …
