I previously asked you how many of the currently incarcerated do you want to be released. We both like numbers, no? So, how many do you want to be released?

On the flipside, do you think the fact that 4% of the population represents 22% of the prison population to be a good thing? And save me any demographic argument because it doesn't come close to accounting for those numbers. Are we just that much worse than the rest of the world?

It's neither a good thing or a bad thing. It just is.

Are you sure the demographics don't significantly change the percentages? I have not done the math myself.
