although some were convicted of firearms charges in connection with drug crimes

Examination of convictions is highly misleading. Some of these "non-violent" perps probably resorted to plea deals for lesser crimes. I'd like to see what the original arrest reports had to say.

Around here, those getting 30+ years for drugs always, always, always have felony gun charges either in their past or with the most recent arrest.

And Da Judges hand down the same sentences for white trash meth heads.

But I’d wager that Obama isn’t releasing ANY caucasians

With congressional sentencing guidelines the Feds can’t make deals like you’re alluding to baring a cooperating defendant thru a 5k-1 departure at sentencing or Rule 35 post sentencing if incarcerated defendant decides to fold

Been that way 30 years next year but folks still think it’s like a Law and Order episode

Not in the Feds it ain’t

I had several friends do almost 30 years for large scale marijuana smuggling with zero violence on their “jacket”

I hope that was enough for your average Freepers prisonlust

It’s GD ridiculous in my opinion

I applaud anyone terminates a nonviolent sentence after 10 calendars

The problem with cut loose is overwhelmed state courts inundated with mostly tropical African descended predatory crime

There you have a point

Average state murder charge prisoner in Mississippi on a life bit time served was 8 years

Less for splittails

Crazy I agree
