> The war on drugs is and has always been racist, it is targeting minorities and filling prisons. How it is precieved is a different thing. You're missing the point: do today's voters tend to think of it that way? In my opinion, no, they do not. So if you go around arguing that the war on drugs is racist, or exclusively for the benefit of prisons, a lot of people know it isn't racist for them, and that they don't agree because they have an interest in prisons, and you will not change their mind. |

1- Those that agree with you. 2- Those that don't and won't agree with you no matter what. 3- Those that don't have a well established opinion, yet.
Generally, I know group 1 and 2 are inmaterial. I tend to try and find those in group 3.
If you aren't going to accept that the world is round or other extremely self evident things... there's nothing I can do to make someone see it. Although by pointing out how ridiculous the flat world-ers are (or pro drug prohibitionists), I hope that maybe someone who is considering the flat world theory will see the other side.
Mostly stringent, crazy opinions are the loudest, so we need a sea of reason to counter act them.
