3 strikes and you're out!

Post by Grandma Lynn » Fri Mar 10, 2023 3:53 am

And I'm not talking about baseball!
What ever happened to the rule that
if you were caught by the police
three times, you were going to do
jail time?
Wasn't it a life sentence? Too
harsh a sentence I presume.
Some criminals are roaming the
streets and have record of 11
or more times being caught.

Not every crime is considered a "strike".
Three strikes laws generally deal with serious and violent felony offenses. Common crimes considered "strikes" include rape, murder, arson, and robbery. But the lists of "strikes" vary by state—some include nonviolent offenses like treason, drug trafficking, felony theft, and bribery.

Like Treason?!!!!

Isn't "treason" one of the few crimes listed in the U.S. Constitution?
And isn't "treason" supposed to be punishable by death?

Wow, how far we have fallen.
:shock:

Interesting, missed that, was going to point out the drug offense one. That law has I'm sure added to the prisons being filled with relatively minor drug offenders

I'm very much surprised that being a "conservative" isn't listed as being a crime deserving of the death penalty.

Don't have a problem with conservatives, filling the prisons with MAGA's instead of drug dealers?.... tempting

A MAGA may consider themselves a conservative but that doesn't make conservatives MAGAs. You get to the RINOs
