I can't make this stuff up. I really can't.
Ventura County Star, 9/24/2008:
Proposition 36; Program for drug offenders debated
"It's a failure," District Attorney Greg Totten said. "Proposition 36 gave a whole bunch of opportunities to keep using drugs and avoid criminal consequences. ... It reduced the ability to incapacitate them through incarceration."
I'm quite sure that every warden in every prison in the United States will be surprised to find out that they've managed to incapacitate people from drug use by mere fact of incarceration alone.
I mean, it's not like there's
drugs in prison or anything.
