Alan Jenkins, a renowned advocate for social justice, recently shared some thought-provoking insights on the criminalization of certain activities.
He questioned the rationale behind incarcerating individuals for acts that are increasingly being seen as non-harmful, such as marijuana use. 🌿
In an era where many states are shifting their stance on such matters, it's high time we re-evaluate our approach to crime and punishment.
Jenkins also highlighted the misuse of laws like loitering, which have historically been used to control marginalized communities, rather than to maintain public order. 🚦
His words compel us to ask ourselves, should these actions be criminalized?
And if so, should the penalty be as severe as imprisonment? 🗝️
