Awesome act of kindness...

Watched an episode of Vice last night on HBO with POTUS in a federal prison talking to inmates about mandatory minimums, pleading out and their situation in general.

 

Was one of the most respectable moments I've seen of him in 6 years. Story led into what happens after prison and precisely the situation that the guy in this video ended up in.  People fuck up sometimes and now they are punished for life.  POTUS brought up that thing about people not being able to ask if you were a criminal on applications, but allowing it during an interview, because most ex-cons are shut out of the opportunity from the get go as soon as they check off that box on the application.  At least this way, they have a chance to explain during an interview.
