I think family is a big part of the story to me. The jails are full of people today, and I don't care. Heck, they can crack corn too, and I still don't care. They're probably just bad people who deserve to be in there. All of that dat corn crackin'... PEOPLE OUT HERE ARE TRYING TO SLEEP!
But if my dad went to jail... even if I knew he was guilty... man I'd work to get him out. Whatever it was he did... I'm sure he won't do it again. He's learned his lesson. So why don't we just commute that sentence and get back to father-and-son campouts.
Besides, if he stays in there too long... he might start cracking corn.
And then I would care.
