USA Justice System has always been STATUS BASED......let's just keep it simple Complicating the issue can never result in possible corrections....
It happens all over Latin America too pal! Sadly we “copy” the worst of your policies about repression & social control by imprisonment. our genocide military forces were trained at/by The School of the Americas
