Political Factoid
Rand Paul reported that one out
of three African-American men
is prevented from voting
... by the War on Drugs.
e.g., by having their voting rights denied after
being arrested and convicted* of possession
of drugs (or association with drug dealers)
... and being given significantly longer
sentences than given to people of other
races caught in similar circumstances.
| * |
and even after having paid the price
extracted by society.
