Need more slave labor.
But soon there will be so many immigrants to use for that.
This is kind of a shit article. It doesn’t even mention what kind of crimes would be included. Unless it’s all felonies, I guess.
<…> would grant legislators the authority, with a two-thirds vote, to determine which juvenile crimes can be transferred to adult courts.
Amendment itself wouldn’t apply to any crime/law, it just gives the authority to legislators to decide on per crime/law basis which they can’t do now because of constitution.
