Is tolerance intolerant?

[Rev. Rye]

How can we keep families together?  How can we reduce incarceration rates in black communities?

Ending the war on drugs would be a good start; they're a HUGE part of why America has the highest incarceration rate on Earth. And, of course, there's still a disproportionately higher amount of black people sent to jail for the same crime that white people are more likely to be given a slap on the wrist for. As a good example, in the 1980s, crack had higher penalties than regular cocaine (despite being the exact same chemically) for no discernible reason except it was a cheaper form that, consequently, had a higher use among poor blacks than the obscenely rich people who used cocaine in the 1970s. And even now, black people are likely to serve harsher sentences than white people for the same exact drug-related crime.
