Releasing inmates for the sake of HIS own principle will ensure more victims are created in your communities. There is NO such thing as a victimless crime. Every criminal has a victim in one capacity or another. Ask the victims how they feel about letting inmates out of jail. Absurd. Fetterman himself is a criminal for not paying taxes…what happens if you as a citizen don’t pay your taxes? Not just once but MULTIPLE times…”it just fell through the cracks”. That sounds like a responsible candidate for any public office. Sad the majority of the people voting don’t do any homework on the candidates but rely on media to shape their mind and opinions.

I think you haven't done your homework. Fetterman wants to eliminate mandatory life sentences with no parole for second degree murder.

“More than 1,000 people are sitting in jail right now on what amounts to a death sentence despite never having taken a life,” Fetterman said in February 2021. “That’s not because a judge thought the sentence was deserved. It’s because a one-size-fits-all law makes it mandatory. Any reasonable person who looks at the unfairness of these sentences will acknowledge the need for change.”

That seems pretty reasonable to me. Also, explain to me how having some weed in your pocket is not a victimless crime. I used to grow a little weed and sell it, I promise you there was no victim.

You're going on about Fetterman not paying his taxes; I'm curious who you voted for in the last presidential election. It wasn't trump was it? Please tell me it was trump.

They really are, and it's 100% by design. I used to be surprised when I heard conservatives defending politicians who constantly act against their voter's interests. Now I just feel bad for them. The republican party has dumbed down their voters significantly in recent decades.

What's really sad is that some voters don't investigate the credibility of the sources their information is coming from.
