ACLU Report: U.S. Drug Laws Harm Women(?!)
What the HELL is going on?
ACLU Report: U.S. Drug Laws Harm Women
So...women are getting caught in drug stings. Maybe they shouldn't get involved in drugs in the first place?
The ACLU will be trotting out the anecdotal evidence, and based upon that, decry the system. "Jailing women involved in drugs will harm the children!" will be the mantra. And to what end? Give women blanket immunity unless they're caught with drugs in their possession AND intent to deal?
If she knows her significant other is a dope dealer, should she have immunity from reporting him (i.e. be immuny from criminal accomplice/conspiracy laws) to the police, as her primary source of support will be taken away? The fact that this question can even be raised is either funny as hell, or sad beyond belief.
