Blacks are ~14% of the US population. Blacks are 56% of inmates convicted for drug violations, most are non-violent crimes.
When I refer to the Republican Party and I say "they" I mean the decision makers who thought Dede Scozafava and Charlie Crist were better than Doug Hoffman and Marco Rubio.
FYI: no fan of Infowars, whose name is seen early on a chyron. Jesse Ventura is a dude I'd have a beer with though.
Speaking of beer: ZZ and a little Tush
Lots of people in government getting fat and paid well due to the WOD. It's an ugly farce. It does nothing but grow the size of government.
I'm reminded of the theme song of "Barretta": "Don't do the crime, if you can't do the time..."
80% of the NBA is black..... RACISM!!
you are correct we should hand out kilo’s of heroin in 1st grade!! Cuz drugs are FUN!!! Here kids, coke lines for lunch!!
Good grief...
You would have a beer with a 9/11 Truther?
Obviously, you are not impacted, yet.
Then they came for the “fill in the blank”,
and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a “fill in the blank”.
Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak out for me.
Ya look at the courts nowadays, and many have more cash registers than the local Walmarts..
One massive big government scam.
A Navy Seal, WWF dude, Governor of a state, with stories to tell? Hells yeah I would. Since when are you a purist?
Go to the courthouse.
90% of everthing on the docket is about drugs.
90% of the perps are funded by my tax dollars in their businesses.
Their is no space on the docket to even think about stopping other crime.
I always think maybe I hear a Leit motif.
“you are correct we should hand out kilo’s of heroin in 1st grade!! Cuz drugs are FUN!!! Here kids, coke lines for lunch!!”
That is ridiculous to say. There is a difference between legalization and giving it away or giving it to kids. That argument is moot for booze so what makes it work for drugs, nothing. If heroine or meth were legal maybe we could “trim” some dead weight. Pot is only a “stepping stone” drug because the guys that deal it deal other things too. If drugs were sold in a liquor store ... like booze. There are too many people that think they know too much about drugs around here. The bottom line is everything you throw at it dollar wise (WOD) is a flat out waste. Nothing anyone says tonight will change that.
I see Paul is continuing to blatantly pander to the race-obsessed left. The appropriateness of a law doesn’t depend on the skin tone of the chief lawbreakers. And besides, decriminalize all drugs (as I would happily do) and blacks would still be a majority of the prison population - that won’t change.
the ones leading the cause are also pro-open borders and would legalize kiddie porn with half the chance... liberaltarians are scum
I really hope they don’t legalize drugs. I don’t want to become an addict.
Its always about the bennies. My little courthouse here in TX is funded mainly by dope. Most small towns depend on dope for cash to make sure they have SWAT gear and fast cars. The picture they paint is Reefer Madness but the reality is a couple of college dude (with parents willing to fork over 2K) were just trying to get laid. If you don’t have parents with cash? Sucks to be you amigo.
“I really hope they don’t legalize drugs. I don’t want to become an addict.”
That’s what I call the “slippery soap” argument.
Out of all of the things that could be brought up as a challenge, conflating open borders with kiddie porn is a bit odd. Why was this pairing first in your mind? Should we be concerned? Not about the open borders I mean - the other thing.
Correct, because his stat is meaningless. Factoring for fatherless families, the incarceration rate for blacks and whites is identical.. Focus on the family and you solve the black prison rate.
as I said, movement led by the same people
