I cannot understand it. With all the hoopla about Gov. LePage and Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and their statements, why on earth does someone (like you) not prove or disprove their statements?

LePage says that heroin traffickers are impregnating “young, white girl(s).” How many babies born in Maine are fathered by out-of-state drug dealers?

Is it a false statement? Or do we have a problem? If LePage knows this is a problem, tell me how many. (I realize one is too many, but statistics, please.)

Then there’s Trump’s statement that 81 percent of white murder victims are killed by black people. Where are his statistics coming from? Proof, please. Did I miss something in your paper?
