                           Proposition 66

Vote No on Prop 66

 

Proposition 66 will restore the original intention for the Three Strikes Law. It was made to keep violent or serious crimes such as murder, kidnapping, and rape or child molestation out of the streets of California. But the fact was that not only did violent and serious crimes was apart of the law, it also has nonviolent and petty offenses such as stealing a tape, a little bit of food, or some t-shirts. Most of the people sentence for life due to the Three Strikes Law committed a crime that was nonviolent or petty offense. This will fix this problem by changing the law to only violent or serious crimes. This will help free people who have been sentence to 25-to-life in prison for having a nonviolent or petty offense in their second and third strike.

Pros: Proposition 66 will prevent many things that will help California financially which consist of: prevention of the clogging of judiciary systems, prevention on high amounts of money paid for trials and will prevent clogging in the prisons.

Cons: On the other hand, this might be good for California; it also initiates a re-sentence for convicted felons, allowing criminals to reduce their jail time, because Proposition 66 applies retroactively making it severe to the community. The Proposition needs to be revised because it is dangerous to count felony strikes by one strike per prosecution, instead of one strike per conviction, because the felon can be convicted of many murders and yet only get one strike.
