Paul LePage Makes Racist Claim About Drug Dealers Named D-Money Getting White Girls Pregnant

[ProudToBeLiberal]

Maine Gov. Paul LePage made a racist claim about his state's heroin epidemic on Wednesday, alleging men with nicknames like "D-Money" are coming from cities to sell heroin and "impregnate" Maine's white women.

During a town hall meeting in Bridgton, Maine, LePage was asked how he plans to address the state's heroin epidemic. The first step, LePage said, is beefing up enforcement.

"Now the traffickers ... These are guys with the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty, these types of guys. They come from Connecticut and New York, they come up here, they sell their heroin, and they go back home," LePage said. "Incidentally, half the time they impregnate a young, white girl before they leave, which is a real sad thing because then we have another issue that we've got to deal with down the road. We're going to make them very severe penalties."

How does this guy get elected two times in a row in Maine?

[Dr Hobbitstein]

1. Shaking my damn head...

I mean, seriously... What the ever-loving fuck?

Maine should've said "bye, Felecia" to his ass quite some time ago.

[Ed Suspicious]

2. 3rd party vote split and a disciplined, well supported campaign is what I gather.

[Initech]

3. How do any of these tea party assholes get elected anywhere? They're the worst!

[retrowire]

4. When we don't pay attention to politics, idiots get elected.

We were discussing politics with my family once, and my niece made a comment to my wife about, "I just don't like talking politics."

My wife simply responded, "It's your future."

Whatcha gonna do...

[Chakab]

5. I can't wait to see the awkward press conference where he trots out his adopted son

to prove that he's not a racist.

[houston16revival]

6. 50% of the time?

Someone should run some numbers on that claim

He seems to be saying on half their trips to the state they father another child.

So if they make the trip 3 times a month, that's 18 children per year per dealer.

[Feeling the Bern]

7. Again, I feel very little sympathy for the people of Maine

they elected this turd, saw what he was like in his first term, then re-elected him.

Same with Wisconsin. They elected, failed to recall, then re-elected Scott Walker.

Michigan, New Jersey, North Carolina, Florida, Texas, Ohio, Kentucky and even my state of Arizona. You stay home or vote Republican, you get Republican policies.

I can't seem to feel sorry.

[LittleGirl]

10. You can't leave out Gov Pence in Indiana! eom

[Feeling the Bern]

11. I can't remember every Republican turd. But Pence and Daniels before him is/was a huge turd

[bobthedrummer]

18. Some of us were circulators that got a million signatures (2x requirement) 2 recall Gauleiter WALKER

of course you likely missed the fact that BUSH/CHENEY were INSTALLED by a COUP. then, after 9/11 everything CHANGED.

8. White girls pants are that easy to get into up there in Maine, Paul?

I'm just asking.

A bit of 'Jungle Fever' perhaps?

[saltpoint]

9. Perhaps Governor LePage could build a

huge wall around his state's southern border. That would, you know, keep those dealers from Connecticut and New York out and female folk within Maine would be safe.

Oh, and get the dealers to pay for the wall. That's the ticket.

[Odin2005]

12. WTF were people in Maine thinking when they voted for this POS?

[1Greensix]

13. Not a racist

Oh yeah, he ain't a racist. Not the Gov. He's just stating what lie he thinks is reality. It's the same reason why pot is illegal. White jazz musicians were getting white girls pregnant in Alabama, so Pot has been illegal for almost a hundred years. All based on lies. Racists don't see themselves as racists. They think they are spewing the truth. Any white girls getting pregnant by black jazz musicians in Alabama, or drug dealers in Maine, WANT to have sex with them, instead of white morons like Governor La Puke. And the white morons can't handle the fact that a white woman would rather have sex with an intelligent, handsome black man than an ugly, stupid white one.

14. The sad irony is when Trump says something like this

he gets a pass because he's waging some mythical war against "political correctness"

[47of74]

15. And now he's claiming the ol' slip of the tongue

And oh of course he didn't mean to interject race into the matter;

AUGUSTA, Maine — Gov. Paul LePage today apologized for his remark about out-of-state drug dealers impregnating "young white" girls, calling it a slip of the tongue and saying he didn't mean to inject race into discussion of Maine's heroin epidemic.

The Republican governor also blamed reporters for unfairly focusing on the slip-up in which he described the drug dealers as "guys with the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty" and added "half the time they impregnate a young white girl before they leave."

"I was going impromptu, and my brain didn't catch up to my mouth. Instead of 'Maine women,' I said 'white women,'" LePage said, noting that Maine is among the nation's whitest states.

For fuck sake. When is he going to be impeached?

[Gawdless Pinko Lib]

16. Maybe he crossed the Canadian border, eh?

And started sniffing

[bobthedrummer]

17. A lot of American men got addicted and got Asian girls pregnant in Vietnam, didn't they? Many

former USSR men got addicted and got Afghani girls pregnant, right? Why are people like this ass still holding office?

Btw, historically there are many unwanted, stigmatized children that end up in the care of monsters and few believe their stories.
