Killing Kids

Do you know what the US also did?

Between 1976 and as recently as 2002 we executed 22 juveniles.

The US Leads the World.

In per capita prison population we are the world's leader.

The US incarcerates 751 people per 100,000 of population. Canada 108, Iran 222 and Japan 61. So we beat Iran with incarceration rates but they beat us in the number of people executed. Bummer, we can't be number one at everything.

Equal Justice?

Amazing! In Orange County CA, Christopher Fenn plea bargains and gets 10 years** for flashing. Haidl and his cronies get 6 years for gang rape. Fenn did not physically harm anyone and obviously needs psychiatric help.
The criminal industrial enterprise can be proud of itself.

His wife and four kids will not be affected at all. And oh yes, he will come out of prison cured and ready to contribute to society.
USA Prison population 751 per 100,000; Canada 108 per 100,000

** Was actually looking at 41 yrs and 4 mths.

Government Regulation

Let business regulate itself - sure! Like the financial institutions and the oil and gas companies -  think Enron.
