Also refused to obey the law to expand MaineCare (should've been Impeached). Cut nearly every single program in Maine funded by the state government that was put in place to help people in need. Etc, etc, etc.

It's just cocaine. In a smokeable form rather than a snortable form.
What do you think of when someone says "crack" in relation to drugs?

"And the LePage narrative may be even more insidious than meets the eye.
As observed in a Harm Reduction Journal study published earlier this year, “crack” is a word “loaded with unfortunate connotations of stigma and discrimination” and “driven by media depictions of an urban public health crisis primarily affecting Black communities.”
It suits LePage to promote a vision of drug-ravaged inner cities and ignore the reality of rural towns in deep distress. Across the country and nationally, the use of “crack pipe” at best appeals to the villainizing thinking of the 1980s war on drugs. At worst, it perpetuates a racist trope."

Shoulda seen me in Dover NH last April when a local pulled that same shit on me for ZERO provocation in downtown (I have dashcam proof) AND he broke my mirror. Only thing I did wrong, that this driver did right, was not unmount the camera to show him at my door. If I did, the police would have been able to prosecute.

Reply to Advice after dog attack by MeanFluffyBunny
Police report, animal control, probably a lawyer for the civil suit you'll be filing for damages (aka the vet bills, mental anguish, etc).
Key question: At any time, were you afraid the dog would attack YOU?
