        @GOP don’t even bother stating Steve Alford’s views don’t represent your values. It starts right at the top with your chosen presidential candidate.

        Racist AF! Everyone smokes marijuana. Minorties are just jailed at a higher rate due to our crooked judicial system.

        One thing to consider is that white people are being checked into rehab more than other races. Could it be that it is more encouraged in that culture to seek help while the others result to incarceration to get clean? https://www.drugabuse.gov/publications/drugfacts/treatment-statistics …

        I doubt anyone goes to jail to get clean.... Better point is why is ok to get off work and drink a beer but not ok to get off and smoke a joint?? Our laws are broken.
