And just what orfice did you pull that fact out of? The article said nothing of the such, and in fact contradicts such claims:
Daniel could have been sentenced to life in prison for two of his crimes ? burglary resulting in personal injury and armed robbery.
He pleaded guilty Sept. 15 in exchange for 20 years. Reese also ordered Daniel to serve five years of probation.
Such law perverting legislation is a misdemeanor. We seem to love electing men and women of suspect ethics and often, amorality -- figuring if we in each of our states, each of our districts elect a better thief and a swell grifter that then that foolishly esteemed cad of a personage will be bringing more swag home with him.
We also love to set a childish borders on adults, fellow adults for the sake of fear-mongering, furthering mistrust and casual mocking -- e.g. "You worthless druggie, you. Piss in this cup or be fired!" A generation of childish adults and wanna-be parents, unwilling to know an adult for what an adult must be. The zeitgeitz: "Since I'm a child-adult, I must make sure to hobble you from ever being a free adult-adult!" Fools!
