Opinion of How California is Dealing with its Overcrowded Prison System

What is your opinion of how California is dealing with its overcrowded prison system? Although under a mandate by the U.S. Supreme Court to reduce its prison population, is AB 109, Prop 47 and the Prop 57 the best way to achieve this? Do you think AB 109, Prop 47 and Prop 57 have contributed to the increase of crime in California? If you voted for Prop 47 in 2014 and/or Prop 57 in 2016 do you feel you were well informed about what it was really about and the potential consequences and/or benefits? Do you feel the title of the propositions align with what the proposition actually does or intends to do? Do you think AB 109 really addresses the issue of “non-violent, non-serious, non-sex related” crimes when the offender can have a long history of violent/serious/sex related convictions? Do you think the crime rate has increased because of Prop 47 and Prop 57? Why or why not? Is an increase in crime worth releasing offenders early, reclassifying the seriousness of certain crimes or reducing the punishment of certain crimes? How else can California (and really the rest of the nation) deal with overcrowded prisons?
