Pardon me

With the outgoing President here come the pardons. From just looking at the list it seems to be a good amount of pardons for narcotics. Not pardoned but communed, the most deserving was Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean. Yes they committed a crime, but I believe their sentence was harshly overstated and unfair.

Wiki Link to List of Pardons

Number 86 on the list is hilarious,

"Jason Welge who was charged with conspiracy to endanger penguins in violation of the 1907 U.S. Penguin Ceasefire."
