    Yeah of course it is you Goblin. These are people. They’re not just numbers they are actual human lives. Waving away that they now have clemency is psychotic. Of course it’s better.

      Biden could have done this at any point in his presidency. He intentionally waited for it to be irrelevant.

      You and those like you are the precise reason that Trump is coming back into office.

          I definitely don’t think it’s irrelevant to anybody. Every pardon is justice for someone. He should have also been pushing hard to decriminalize the sort of thing that got them in prison to begin with. We have way too many things on the books, destroying people’s lives and grinding them up in the system for no good reason.
