My name is Andrew McLaren. You can google me. My opponents are googling me I am sure. You will not find as much as a speeding ticket against me. You will not find a bigger supporter of law enforcement than in Andrew Gordon McLaren. Yet I know what its like to sit in the back of a police car for a crime I did not commit. I know what its like to have your dignity besmirched and your character libeled.
Overcriminalization is the greatest threat to American liberty since the Cold War. Overcriminalization is when the City of San Francisco outlaws goldfish as pets, and plastic bags from shopping malls. Overcriminalization is when public school boards prosecute felony five year prison sentences to honor students for pocket knives and banning chocolate milk while bullies and gangs run free. Overcriminalization is when SWAT teams bust down your door and detain you for six hours for unpaid student loans only to find out they found the wrong person. Overcriminalization is having your kids taken away from you without due process presuming the parent is guilty before proven innocent. Overcriminalization is arresting a 61 year old grandmother for failing to prune her rose bush. Overcriminalization is no warning police killing of an unarmed pedestrian whose only crime was watering his lawn while drunk. As your congressman I will GLADLY repeal nit wit legislation by applying COMMON SENSE and holding bureaucrats and politicians accountable for their nit wit shenanigans.
