One NAACP leader called Alford “an idiot” over the remarks.

It’s not often I find myself agreeing with a leader from the NAACP. If this is what he really said, I am just appalled.

Oh whatever you do DONT TELL THE TRUTH.

The problem here isn't telling the truth. The problem is making idiotic statements.

People across the board abuse drugs because of character make-up.

What is your evidence that genetics of blacks somehow make them more susceptible to addiction to drugs than members or other races?

They're not. That was the propaganda used (in part) to get "marihuana" criminalized in the first place.

Oh whatever you do DONT TELL THE TRUTH.

The comments of State Rep. Steve Alford are anything but the truth. They are the epitome of racist generalization, and patently absurd on their face.

That's why Justice Thomas calls Wickard v Filburn's substantial-effect-on-interstate-commerce test, which underpins the Controlled Substances Act, a "rootless and malleable standard" ... it's not that he's a Constitutional originalist, it's his genetic and character propensity to smoke marijuana, play wild jazz music, and seduce white women. /s

It is true. Blacks who vote 90% Democrat have the socialist character.

Be very afraid of the black brown society as they are generally failures for the people.

It wasn't about my claiming inferior races!

It was about them claiming that and loop-holing the 13th amendment!
