re: #2 ReamWorks SKG

Maybe so, but residential burglaries are up 23% in my county since three strikes was toppled in CA.

I really don’t see too much wrong with sending a person with two prior felonies back to jail for a long time after a third offense, even if “minor.” How many chances does a person need?

“Minor felony” should be an oxymoron, that’s the whole problem.
