CA doesn't want to release more inmates

But Fed government says they have to. Here is a link that explains why they don't want to release more inmates (although I know most of us already knows this)

What a crock! lol And let us not forget that the same feds that are saying the inmates should be released early are the same feds responsible for the over criminalization of our county in the first place!

CA has a prison overcrowding issue that the Fed has determined to be cruel and unusual punishment as inmates have substandard healthcare. Brown has been kicking and fighting against them to release inmates, but his hand is forced. Yet, again, he is trying to push back and prevent the cash cow from going dry.

It's just unbelievable. The attorney General of CA must have been sitting around drunk with their buddies saying, "you think they are going to buy this hunk of crap we are presenting as our argument?" Then they proceeded to drink several more drinks, then went to court and presented this flaming pile of feces.

sounds rather familiar to me if history books are to be believed at all.

slave labor and poor share croppers..... why pay regular price when you can get the same thing for free or at a ridiculously cheap price?
