37. To the max, huh?
Maximum penalty for more than 4 ounces of marijuana is five years in prison. You support this in every single case?
Maximum penalty for an 18 year old getting busy with their seventeen year old girlfriend / boyfriend is between twenty years in prison and life, depending on what state you're in. You're supporting this in every single case?
Maximum penalty for downloading an MP3 file is five years in prison and twenty five thousand dollars in fines. You support this maximum in all cases, no exceptions, nothing less.

How many laws have you broken? How many do you know you've broken? if you've EVER driven without a seatbelt, downloaded music, recorded a movie, ridden a bike without a helmet, claimed yourself as a dependent on your W-2, fished without a license, smoked marijuana, had a beer before you were 21, or done "odd jobs" without reporting your income... you are as much of a as, and sometimes more of one, than anyone jumping the border. If you've ever done any of the bolded ones, you have broken federal law, and the FBI, by your own estimation, needs to kick down your door and give you the absolute maximum penalties possible.
