&gt; Downvote me all you want: it won&#x27;t change the facts.<p>I downvoted you because you are simply incorrect about the facts.  Black people make up 12% of the US population, and use illicit drugs at approximately a proportionate rate.  Yet, black people make up more than half of the prison population of drug offenders, and nearly two thirds of those under any form of criminal supervision for drug offenses.<p>Why are you saying otherwise?
