If we take the arguments that I have listened to here tonight. and let us look at it from the other perspective and say if whitecollar crime. that there are more whites in America that commit bank fraud. in a racial disparity of 1000 to 1. should we then reduce the penalties? If we then look at sex and say that how many. if there are greater men that commit battery against spouses. should we have lesser penalties against the men? If we look to the dimension of national origin and say that because there are more illegal aliens from Mexico versus Canada. that therefore we should not be harsh on illegal aliens from Mexico? The penalties of crime should not be based due to the dimension of color. sex. or national origin. period. and I support the efforts of the gentleman from Florida .
