As The Skin Color of Opioid Abusers Change, Watch How Quickly America Softens Attitude Towards Drug Addiction
March 30, 2016 | Posted by A Moore (http://atlantablackstar.com/author/andre-moore/)
President Barack Obama is saying no to the war on drugs, as a part of his approach to treat drug abuse as a public health issue rather than a criminal justice matter. Interestingly, when the nation’s long-running war against drugs was defined by the crack epidemic and impoverished, predominantly black urban areas, the public response was defined by calls to be tough on crime, zero tolerance and stiff prison sentences.
Now that heroin use has skyrocketed among whites; nearly 90 percent of those who tried heroin for the first time in the last decade were white, the country’s approach to drugs are changing. White families are using their power and influence to alter the language around addiction and prodding government to treat it not as a crime, but as a disease.

whites, since I first became aware of us government statistics, are more likely to be users of drugs in all categories than all other ethnicities. Blacks according to these same government stats the lowest in all except one drug. In that category (lsd) next to lowest. Over the last thirty years the rate of white drug abuse has consistently risen and Black use dropped. They get wasted we get busted. I'll look for the data and will post again later.
