Biden has been in politics for 52 years. Has he ever, at any point in his long political career, shown any concern whatsoever for the plight of non-violent minor drug offenders until five minutes ago when it became politically expedient for him?

This is a genuine question, I'd love to be proved wrong.

How can you be proved wrong about a genuine question? You're making a claim, not asking a question. In which case, the burden of proof is on the person making the claim. We aren't going to do your research for you.
