It's sad to see a correlation between the effects of US Domestic-Drug policies on the poor/lower-class/minorities like those in Baltimore and US Foreign-Drug policies on underdeveloped countries, such as Afghanistan. Through an elaborate Drug Policy reform, this will change. I believe the prisons in the US are appalling, particularly in comparison to prisons in Europe, and even parts of South America. As there is much opposition to restorative justice, it will be a long time until such an approach will be realized. But I do believe that our system of detention should seek to reintroduce the offenders into society, instead of punishing them by giving them time and then releasing them into society, worse than they were before. I appreciate your article. It points to this very necessity in quite an urgent fashion. P.A.C. Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07590039211462894088noreply@blogger.com
