“As states move toward legalizing marijuana, let’s remember how many lives have been ruined because of our regressive policies. We must focus on restorative justice.”
Kamala Harris has a lot of fucking gall talking about lives being ruined by the criminal justice system
I didn’t ask
Lol you wanna ignore the fact your favorite neoliberal was once a prosecutor who sent countless victimless “criminals” to prison and who once denied that access to hrt was “medically necessary” for a trans prisoner, that’s your deal, but if you’re gonna tag me in something I am going to respond to it
Relax white girl if this is about your obsession with daddy bernie that’s not my problem. You can lie and slander Kamala all day that’s not gonna change the fact that come 2021 she’s gonna be our first black female president 💋
It took me less than a minute to find mainstream news publications that confirm what Peteseeger has been saying. Kamala’s record is filled with conservative positions on criminal justice. Peteseeger nor I give a shit about Bernie. This is about her public record as a public official. Which hers and every other democrat, including sanders, is fully in support of US empire. All of which you could’ve googled but you didn’t. Lies? Slander? You’re an idiot and this entire post of yours is embarrassing. I guess I have to do your intellectual work too.
“Federal judges on Friday ordered California to launch a new parole program that could free more prisoners early, ruling the state had failed to fully implement an order last February intended to reduce unconstitutional crowding…Most of those prisoners now work as groundskeepers, janitors and in prison kitchens, with wages that range from 8 cents to 37 cents per hour. Lawyers for Attorney General Kamala Harris had argued in court that if forced to release these inmates early, prisons would lose an important labor pool.”
“In 2011, the Supreme Court found that lack of access to medical care in California’s prisons due to overcrowding amounted to cruel and unusual punishment. Harris represented Gov. Jerry Brown in fighting to release fewer prisoners than the lower courts initially ordered. “I have a client, and I don’t get to choose my client,” she said. In 2012 and 2014, Harris took no position on two sentencing-reform measures on the state ballot, saying she had to remain neutral because of her responsibility for writing the text that goes to the voters. One of her predecessors as attorney general, John Van de Kamp, a fellow Democrat, told me that rationale was “baloney.””
