although we do catch enough
to seriously overburden
our legal system."

Make what "law" a real threat ? Real law is not a threat ! What legal system ? In Amerika, exists a Police State system of tyranny.  -- Mike, Norwalk
If he meant " to seriously overburden our legal system" that our jails are full to overflowing with non violent people, then he is correct.  -- jim k, Austin, Tx
Forget about overburdening the courts, the property seizures is what it is all about -- that's where 'law enforcement' gets it money. Good luck trying to get it back even if you are innocent. Legalized theft.  -- E Archer, NYC
