FYI, I am all for consequences and jail for criminal behavior and drug treatment for heroin, crack or whatever. On that, I think we do agree.


Look, man. We imprison too many people, we frick up our own society by trying to maintain "order" and love to take away a mans freedom for trivial shite. It isn't just a black problem, it's a socioeconomic problem. Our CJ system is fricked up beyond repair and if you don't have means, you're screwed.

Drug dealers and buyers are engaged in a free market system IMO and shouldn't be in prison for their activity.

I find it funny you got attacked for basically saying the same thing as me, but I got 3 upvotes and no downvotes,.

Well, I don't see you constantly blaming the "white community" (like we're all the same) either.

Flat out lie. Actually I have never done that. Never. If you think I do, please back it up. You simply won't find it. I just call out statements and double standards. And since it touches a nerve with many, they make assumptions, even about my race. Never used the term "white community", unless I was being sarcastic to make a point about people calling "the black community" (like they are all the same). Certainly not blaming the white community.

It's kind of like calling out police abuse. People incorrectly assume a person is supporting criminals.

But you're generalizing while calling people out for doing the same.

He ignored it the first time.

Tangerine is just as bad as the people he 'calls out'

I usually do "most" or "many on the OT", which is accurate. In this thread I did not. My bad.

I have represented numerous people on heroin charges and to sat it's a "white problem" is far from true. If I had to look it up it would probably be 50/50 black/white.

Nope. Data already posted. Blacks are arrested more which is why you see what you see in your practice

What I see in my practice is just as many white people assigned to me as black people.

You what they get when they go into drug rehabs? An opportunity to meet new people to get high with and buy from when they get out.
