1. corrupt judges and law enforcement is much more deadly

to society that drugs ever were. They should all get life in prison...but I doubt that will happen. The whole system has just become too corrupt to expect real justice

6. The justice system in this country has never been completely fair........

...........but in especially the last 40 yrs it has progressively gotten divided into two distinct "systems". You have a system that the wealthy can literally get away with murder. A poor or working class person will go to jail for possession of a minimum amount of (any kind)drugs. There are SO many things wrong in the US.
