    Is it right that a person's life--the life they would otherwise have--should be forever destroyed (often along with that of their family) because of a minor non-violent lapse of judgement? I think not. Please temper punishment with mercy.

    Non-violent offenders should be given chances to make restitution for whatever harm they did and thereby outweigh the stigma that they are felons with the positive side that they can also be a benefit to society.

    I was convicted in 1992 of money laundering and possession w/intent, my crime was wiring money over western union for a friend of mine, that was it, i never profited from it and only did it as a favor. it was the first time i had been arrested let alone convicted of anything more than a traffic ticket. in was sentenced to 32 months of which i spent 29 months, i was sent to an institution so far away from my family that i could not receive any visits. i lost my livelihood, my wife, my career, and everything that goes with those things, and now in today's depressed economy i cannot find employment anywhere and have not been able to for the past 2 years.

    Many have done much more harm to our Country, its Constitution, its Spirit, and its standing among the people of the Earth (such as the author of the "Torture Memos") and will never be charged.
