We Need A constitutional amendment to require 3/4 of the Senate to Pardon anyone of a federal crime.

He just pardoned Duncan Hunter.

1. We need a lot of Constitutional Amendments

we ain't getting none anytime soon.

At least accepting the Pardon means you admit guilt.

3. We could just eliminate pardons

That would be the effect of such a change anyway.

4. No. A handful, relatively speaking, of pardons of undeserving people is a small price to pay

for the ability of a compassionate president to mete out mercy when our system of justice fails the least among us.

"etter that ten guilty persons escape, than that one innocent suffer." - William Blackstone

[Cicada]

5. We shouldn't make pardons harder

If we make it harder to pardon a bad person then it will be harder to pardon ten who deserve it.

I’m willing to help a creep if that is necessary to save compassionate justice. For instance enough cruel politicians would block pardons for non violent marijuana salesmen serving 50 years.
