Subject: RE: BS: And the prisons shall be empty...
Well, I've had good friends do time... One of my best friends did 8 years fir selling and possessing pot. Another did three years for a 2nd possession offense (again pot). Another did 7 years fir murder and sadly, another friend who has a major problem with alcohol was arrested fir murder just 3 weeks ago...

But beyond friends, I worked 3 years as a jail house teacher at the Richmond City Jail on 17th St, which is one big danged jail... I also worked ar a drug rehab halfway house for a couple years where most of the folks were probabted by the courts for treatment... Most of these folks were 1st or 2nd offenders...
