No on Prop 5

One of the propositions on the ballot here in California is Prop 5 - or the Nonviolent Offender Rehabilitation Act (also referred to as the "Drug Dealers Bill of Rights"). Basically, if a criminal breaks into your home to rob you or deals drugs or commits any other number of crimes and is caught, he simply has to tell the judge that he did it due to addiction to drugs, and rather than serve hard time for being a criminal, we the tax payers get to foot the bill for him to go to Club Rehab.

I am all for the rehabilitation of people who need help. Everyone needs help at some point and we have a responsibility to help people who need it. This prop, however, is not the answer. Spend that money on people who need the help AND have not victimized others. Unfortunately, too many criminals will take advantage of the good intentions of this bill and abuse an already severely abused system.

32 DISTRICT ATTORNEYS AGREE!
