  • It is not right for there to be a 100:1 ratio between powder cocaine and crack cocaine. Crack cocaine is just a derivative of powder cocaine if anything it should be vise versa. With 5 Grams of cocaine you can make more then twice of it in freebase form "Crack". Yet if you get arrested with 5 Grams of crack your mandantoru minimum is like having 500 grams of powder Cocaine HCL.

  • The hidden lying issue remains being race.

  • GREAT information. Thanks for all you guys do. The fact that there even needs to be a need for your office and services proves that our nation is STILL fighting issues of racism and class-ism everyday!
