One way to start is to get rid of 3/4 of the laws that turn innocent citizens into criminals and the first thing to do is to end the drug war. Which will free thousands of unjustly jailed people and go along way to helping fight gun violence.
There are so many laws on the books that damn near anyone of us could probably end up being charged with something if somebody digs deep enough. This is nuts. Let the civil courts deal with stupid shit like this case and save the criminal courts for murders, rapes, robberies etc.
Next, prosecutors must loose their absolute liability protection. Prosecutors acting in bad faith need to personally pay.
Next we need to look at the prosecutors office paying for the defense of defendants when those defendants are found not guilty.
Personally I'm done voting for the less shitty of the two "choices" we are being provided with during presidential
"elections." Done. What should you do if you actually care about liberty? Duh, vote for somebody who shares those beliefs, not a guy who won't even get his damn justice system to lay off on going after state legal pot production or his white twin. This time I voted for Johnson. The one choice who actually believes the things he says. Did I toss my vote away. F no. I voted for who I believed was best for the country, it is time for others to begin doing the same.
