Why does the NAACP want to keep minority communities is a drug induced stupor?
"The state NAACP is expressing "unconditional support" for the November ballot measure to legalize marijuana, continuing proponents' framing of it as a civil rights issue.
"We are joining a growing number of medical professionals, labor organizations, law enforcement authorities, local municipalities, and approximately 56 percent of the public, in saying that it is time to decriminalize the use of marijuana," state NAACP President Alice Huffman said in a news release Monday. "There is a strong racial component that must be considered when we investigate how the marijuana laws are applied to people of color."
If minorities are using mind altering drugs, how do they expect to get an education, a job or help the community?
The bad news for the Democrats, who support this, is that people on drugs do not vote in as high a number as those who are drug free--with clear minds.
Does the NAACP think drugging people is a good thing? Sick.
""I had a good year in 2009; I only buried six youths related to drugs and drug overdoses," said Bishop Ron Allen, president of the International Faith Based Coalition. "If marijuana is legalized in the state of California, crime will increase, murder will increase. If marijuana is legalized in my community, and is legalized in my world, and our youth have an opportunity to be able to use, we will see more dropouts, we will see an increase of crime, and we will see more individuals hanging out on the corner, and I am seriously afraid we will lose generations to come."
