Ah, yea some of probably are black folks but heck if Maine is 95% white, i'm going to take a shot in the dark and say that most dealers are white too, let's go ahead and live dangerously there for minute.

Whites basically run the meth trade and blacks run the crack trade, so I would bet most crack dealers are black...just saying..

Is Crack still a thing?? I thought that form of coc aine died out a very longtime ago.

I don't no man.. The mix race population of Maine is 1.6% so the black drug dealers from New Your etc are absolutely the reason. I'm telling you the place is over run with drug babies!!! They sell drugs to some young girl and BAM! Drug Baby!

We are talking Maine, population 1.3 million for the whole damn state, so who knows.

"He said some words I do not like. Weird thoughts came into my head when he said them. How disgusting. It might make me puke. How evil of him for speaking, or even mispeaking, or even saying something rude in my presence. It's a bloody holocaust when words come out of this guy's mouth. Bodies drop at every syllable.

Let's demand his job, his retirement, his life because he said some words and I don't like it. Let's protest him, threaten him and demand his resignation, because he said some things I find offensive, not matter if they were true or false. "

This is all I hear in these sorts of threads.

just like they do in north korea.
hells yeah

i dont get why people freak out.
i mean did this paul lepage say anything that was not true?
i dont think he did.
well he may have had the nicknames wrong but the point stands

Apparently because it's disgusting. Words are now causing physical revulsion in what I can only describe as emotionally weak people, and all this despite whether it is true or not.

They freak out, make a scene, and feign their moral superiority because it is politically advantageous to do so.

Or maybe they just call out racist behaviour in order to shine a light on it. As long as some people figure they can behave badly without consequence, they'll continue to do so, and it will continue to be acceptable in some circles. Throw in some public shaming and it is suddenly not so innocuous. Good...'bout time!

Attempting to get someone fired, shaming them, ruining their social lives, is bad behavior. Speaking freely isn't.

Speech is free, but not without consequence.

I do not think it will hurt him with a 95% white population.

You had some interesting people in office in Canada too...hehe just saying.

Perhaps considering the fact there is already racial disparities across policing departments in all 50 states it would be wise to use better discretion and judgement when referring to a race that is dispreportionately arrested as a result of racial disparities.

It's not rocket science, you shill. How can we expect a man who has the KKK view of "Blacks are impregnating white women, which leaves another problem later down the line"

How can you support that? What does he mean by that? Exactly.

We've all heard that Orwellian cliché often enough. Except it's the first step towards justifying authoritarianism. Freedom of speech is exactly freedom from consequences. Anything else is not free speech.

Whites basically run the prescription pills, meth, acid, mushrooms, coc aine (which is required to make crack), the list goes on.. Just saying..

"They impregnate a white girl which creates a bigger problem later down the line", what did he mean by that? Sure, you could defend him from a "legal" stand point if you'd like, it doesn't change the fact that he's unfit to govern without prejudice.

Hmm lets run the numbers...95% white, 40% of births are to single mothers, so that means a hell of a lot of single white women in Maine a getting knocked up...hehe
