IMO They are always fear stats… stats that can’t be actually verified as true or false… normally used to push the war on drugs, rape stats and shit like that.

The 80% of weed is bought on the black market is a great example… also how low reporting rape actually is so the real stats are so off… there are lots of examples like this.

When I see weird stats like that I always think what agenda are they pushing.
