- Conversation with a conservative.
- AlterNet: "Even though women are still a tiny minority of those incarcerated - just 3.7 percent of the 2 million behind bars - their prison-populating growth is outpacing that of men. The number of female inmates in state and federal prison systems grew by 5 percent between June 2002 and July 2003, compared to a 2.7 percent increase for male inmates.
The number of women arrested in Florida has increased more than 18 percent in just the past three years."
It seems the 'war on drugs' is another war being lost. When mam is in prison, what do the kids do?
