Dealers, of any color, will sling what makes them money. With all the new, designer, drugs now, that could be anything.

Crack has also been seen as the "black drug". I notice meth gets a lesser sentence than crack. I've seen more meth in rural, Whites areas than anywhere else. I haven't seen heroin anywhere.

From what I've learned, discussing a subject such as this proves quite controversial and very heated and emotional.

But if your gay and bring attention to yourself then mouth off to someone who notices you and you get killed, that is a hate crime.

How would you know unless you have a background in that?

I would definitely say they are getting very harsh on meth heads, and "cooks" really will get the book thrown at them.

Why is it that stating the truth always gets one labelled Stormfront trooper, etc? Should truth just not be stated if it isn't politically correct?

Politically incorrect talk now gets you thrown in jail in some European countries. Best believe that's coming to America next.

People are just SOOOO thin skinned, really.

Some of what was said was incorrect. He called Minneapolis a "black city".

And I also have to consider why a person mentions certain things. Judging by the tone, I think he might have said this from a place of resentment towards Blacks. I care WHY a person mentions certain things because I can't tell if people are resentful of Blacks or if they have productive dialogue and solutions.
