That American prisons and sentencing are ineffective as deterrents to crime is beyond doubt. Kerik is a whiner.

This is the jack@ss who George W. Bush once nominated to be the head of the Department of Homeland Security.
The good news about the disaster that followed is that it effectively ended Rudy Giuliani's future career in national politics.

If somebody is willing to risk 5 years in jail over a nickel-sized bit of cocaine, they already have a serious deficiency in ability in figuring out the probable consequences of their actions. Nobody has been very good at fixing that problem, so just having these folks off the streets is probably the best we can do.
