Yeah, I think if you look at the data, certainly over the last 10 years or so, very few people get sentenced federally for marijuana possession crimes. I saw an article from the WaPo that said that in 2017 the number was something like 90 people.... -

There are actually four episodes, aren't there (assuming it's the same series I watched last night.)
I liked the series, primarily for two reasons. First, the talking heads included most of the major players in the events, from a number of the hostages, to the leaders of the students who...Leave a comment:

For the most part, these artifacts of "humanity" are around, and preserved only because some rich person somewhere has paid to either purchase them or, more likely, steal them. It's not an ideal system, but it's probably the only system that will reliably preserve the largest chunk of these...Leave a comment:

I think you are 100% correct on this. My guess is that if you fill out a fraudulent loan application and don't even get the loan, that is likely a crime.
But here is what's interesting about the NY case (and again, just due to some other time issues I still haven't gotten past the first...Leave a comment:

It's a fascinating complaint to read. It's long, stretching to over 220 pages, but has lot's of interesting details in it.
One thing that is interesting is the nature of the fraud complaint, at least as described in the first quarter of the complaint.
When people think of...Leave a comment:

Is anyone watching the new Ken Burns series on PBS, The U.S. and the Holocaust. I seriously cannot recommend that show enough. It's obviously written with an eye towards pointing out the echoes of that time that are heard today. But just some of the interesting nuggets that are in the show.

I really enjoyed the first couple of episodes, but personally I've sort of felt like the story bogged down and the show has gotten a little boring. I have high hopes for it, but I think they could have shortened this last part of the story line....Leave a comment:

I think over the next 5-10 years it'll be interesting to see what happens in the Metro area. I see that Hennepin County is experimenting with Handy's social workers program as a way of addressing crime. They plan to spend about $10 million over this year and next on a variety of programs designed...Leave a comment:

I watched season 1 and I thought it was ok. It was definitely enough that I planned to watch the second season. Unfortunately, it sort of just got caught in a backlog of things I want to watch, so I'm behind and haven't seen season 2 or the current season. However, I think I will definitely finish...Leave a comment:

For those voters who are going to vote based primarily upon a single issue, whatever that issue might be, sure things like the train strike will have no impact.
I don't even know whether a train strike will change the outcome of the election at all. What I do know is that if things seem...Leave a comment:

I don't think the concern has to do with whether people are pro or anti union. The concern, I suspect, is related to how it'll impact the daily lives of people in the country. If suddenly there are massive supply chain interruptions so people can't get prescriptions, food, gasoline, or (gasp) toilet...Leave a comment:

Serving good food was never the point of franchise chain restaurants. The point of them is to serve you the same food from location to location, and with that they are successful.
