37. It is a travesty when anyone gets killed in a drive-by shooting, let alone a family member.

I am very sorry for that. But, what may have appeared to be good at the time has proven to be a disaster over time. Sending someone to prison for possessing a joint, or for shoplifting a loaf of bread because it was a third strike is also a travesty.

What I think is what I think, and I have not been told anything. You have your opinion, I have mine.
