Is What Ron Paul Said Saturday Night True?

Question by ROMNEY 2012: Is what Ron Paul said Saturday night true?
About blacks being executed more than whites? If you said yes, you are WRONG. Once again, Ron Paul Saturday night proved what a frequent liar he is.

Facts from NAACP “Death Row USA 2011”:

RACE OF DEFENDANTS EXECUTED IN THE U.S. SINCE 1976 >>> 56% Whites vs. 35% Blacks

So there’s one lie. Next:

CURRENT U.S. DEATH ROW POPULATION BY RACE >>> 44% Whites. vs. 41% Blacks

So there’s the other lie.
I just showed you facts from a left leaning organization that Ron Paul lied. What, can you not read and comprehend stats and numbers?
Paul says whatever bulls!t that comes out of his mouth because my generation is lazy and refuses to do research on their own. And yes, he lied about the drug thing too.

Answer by StephenG
in the long term yes but he is still crazy

Answer by The Rightwing Conservative
No, and Ron Paul also lied when he claimed that Blacks are prosecuted for drugs more than Whites.

Blacks do use drugs 100 times more than Whites, but due to reverse-racism, Blacks are hardly prosecuted for it. It’s mainly Whites on heroin and rich Whites on cocaine being hemmed up for it.
