I mean that the GOP lead war on drugs is putting men in prison by the millions. We have 5% of the world population yet 25% of the worlds prisoners. I'm a little disappointed that Obama has not addressed this problem but it has been mostly GOP led inniatives that has brought us to this carcereal society. About 80% percent of offenders are there for not violent offenses.
