>Do I trust DEA agents, people who signed up to actively punish and criminalize disproportionately minority and addicted people?

I can't read minds, but I think an equally likely formulation might be "people who signed up to enforce the law on the criminal organizations that perform most drug trafficking"?

I think most petty drug enforcement (of the kind that targets users, rather distributors) is by the states, not the federal government, and therefore much less likely to be done by the DEA.
