Barack Obama wants to make things easier for heroine, crack, and cocaine dealers and users. In his Weekly Address, Obama said that:
I signed a bill reducing the 100 to 1 sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine. I’ve commuted the sentences of dozens of people sentenced under old drug laws we now recognize were unfair. The Department of Justice has gotten ‘Smart on Crime,’ refocusing efforts on the worst offenders, and pursuing mandatory minimum sentences less frequently.
Justice means that every child deserves a chance to grow up safe and secure, without the threat of violence. Justice means that the punishment should fit the crime. And justice means allowing our fellow Americans who have made mistakes to pay their debt to society, and re-join their community as active, rehabilitated citizens.

What Mr. Obama is failing to mention are the hundreds of thousands of victims of those same Americans who decided to pursue self-destructive behavior at the expense of the same healthy and safety he is purporting to protect.
Punishment should fit the crime, certainly, but once you start letting off crack cocaine dealers, who are we going to say deserves harsh punishment? The socialists are moving us closer to a Scandinavian prison system, where even pedophiles and murders can expect no more than a little over a decade for harming or even taking the lives of countless citizens. Wake up, America, and get a gun. There’s criminals coming back out to the streets.
He is right, unfair, if it worked like ot should, o would be in prison
