text: Jay: I don't trust politicians, period. The studies that examined the situation relied on just numbers; as a math guy I trust numbers. I inferred that due to the numbers, these groups are targeted; however you and I both know that there is more to this. Other crime is reflected in societal differences. I find myself wondering about those differences.
  
  As I've stated repeatedly, I wish to reduce the harms from substance use: I don't care what the substance. One of the reasons I don't trust politicians has to do with the legality of alcohol, while less harmful, and sometimes beneficial substances remain illegal.
  
  Did you happen to catch the Salk Institute study that shows THC dissolves the plaque in the brain which caused Alzheimer's Disease and can serve to return cognitive ability lots to it?
  
  If we quit attempting to do better, we will all be worse off because of that failure.
  
  Good day to you.
