Do you honestly believe that anybody is selling loose cigarettes in suburbia? I wouldn't say that it's never happened, but I'd bet it's rare enough that even if cops made it a top priority, they'd have a tough time finding anybody doing it. But that doesn't really matter anyways. I thought we were talking about not throwing people in jail and giving them criminal records for petty crimes. If a black guy gets in trouble for, say, selling loose cigarettes, is he supposed to feel better knowing that if a white guy in a different neighborhood did the same thing, that guy would be getting in trouble too? Is that really the best we can do here? I'd rather try and find a way to not throw him in jail in the first place.
