I don't have a problem with the three strikes laws. If a person commits three separate felonies it is pretty clear that this individual does not have any respect for the law.
However, I am completely against California's Felony Petty Theft law especially when it has been applied to the "three strikes law"
cf Jerry DeWayne Williams
