Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The laws seem to have a selective effect on the black community. The U.S. Sentencing Commission submitted three studies to Congress on these laws. Its findings show 1) the current penalties exaggerate the relative harmfulness of crack cocaine; 2) current penalties sweep too broadly and apply most often to lower-class offenders; 3) current quantity-based penalties overstate the seriousness of most crack cocaine offenses and fail to provide adequate proportionality; and 4) current penalties' severity mostly affects blacks.
