ME Gov. LePage makes racially charged comment at Bridgton meeting

[The Arizonan]

I'm going to bet over 80% of drug dealers in Maine are white.

They more than likely are, but there are a lot of drug dealers that probably come out of state, I don't really care if there white or black it doesn't matter they are drug dealers.

If you were a successful drug dealer in New York or Connecticut, why would you go out of your way to reach a place with a smaller, more rural population with fewer customers and zero personal connections?  That literally makes no sense whatsoever.  I'll give you a hint: Maine's drug dealers live in Maine.

probably a lot from NH too.

A lot of them might be coming from Vermont too. Those Green Mountain State niggas are a shifty lot.

I chuckled when I read this.

As someone who lives in an extremely white area that also has a massive meth problem, I can confirm that there are MANY white drug dealers. Plenty of them are racist hicks who would probably vote LePage in fact!

Maybe LePage was referring to out of state white drug dealers impregnating young white women. Hey, anything is possible.

I'm going to assume that you're not joking. There are actually people of different ethnicities that are into hip hop and street culture and would adopt the nicknames that Paul LePage mentioned.

I didn't think LePage's comment was necessarily racist until he mentioned white girls.

I'd love to see Daniello or Johnson 'impregnate a white girl'. It'd be a very Simoun twist to this whole fiasco.

Don't you need a penis for that?

I kind of wish that three guys would pose as heroin dealers named "Shifty", "Smoothie", and "D-Money" and try to "sell" some fake heroin to Paul LePage as a big joke.
