With that said, white people doing coke is as bad as colored people doing crack, that is all I care about. The issue is not what is a bigger problem to the society (I'll let you worry about it), it is how it is addressed by people who wrote the law. Do you not feel that the law as it exists now is unfair or are you a total asshole like Rush Limbaugh? @ Billb

If some idiot said "I heard Rush Limburger (yes, I know it's Limbaugh) say it and that's good enough for me" you'd dismiss them completely as a moron. NPR has long been criticized for slanted stories and more slanted statistics. There is no such thing as a justice system without disparities. Do you REALLY think white people doing coke is as big a problem for society as ANYONE doing crack or meth? Wow.

Obviously you are implying that I am tilting the story, but that does not alter the truth, and the truth is that we have had this disparity in the punishment imposed for the past 20 years and we continue to do so. @ Paulson

Was that part of the census data from 2000? Can you cite your sources? I’m surprised someone was able to accurately poll all those crack users. Was that part of the census data from 2000?
