It's purpose was to target more blacks for incarceration and it worked. But anyways, i'll try to steer this back to the main point of the OP. Same issue for two different groups of people, one group received a criminal response, the other is currently receiving a "national emergency" response.
No they're not. you made this up and have no proof.

LMAO of course it's true.
Big government involvement in Education, health care, the war on drugs, never ending wars in the Middle East. Your posts are getting worse and worse.
Not witnessed. Again you made that up. Posters don't see racism nearly as much as you do. That's on you.
Then you obviously don't know what you're talking about. Again you see racism too often.
No they don't. This is something else you made up.
Hasn't happened and again you have no proof.
The reason you have little credibilty on this is the fact that you didn't call out democratic leadership for their bigotry during the last administration. It's not that he dems are bigots, it's just that they elect them.
Obviously you refuse to be honest in responding to the challenge, but instead deflecting to other issues. I am willing to talk about my credibility, democrats or whatever as soon as you account for the racial gaps in single parent homes, assuming innate equality between the races.
You said it was slightly due to the war on drugs. What is the preponderance of the gap remaining caused by?
chart showing opioid deaths by race since 1999. I don't think I saw a single column where blacks outnumbered whites. Lots of NSD (not sufficient data) for many of the blacks deaths (meaning it was too low).
It's not about deaths it's about use. Again you don't know how to properly anaylize information and come to a proper conclusion.

Obviously you cannot be honest when you're in a discussion and you're having it handed to you. Make something else up.

I haven't deflected. I correctly called you out for making things up.

I already told you. Single parenthood.* You're not very good at comprehension are you? Rhetorical.
Every race incident that happens in the news, you can always count on white conservatives implying that racism doesn't exist, that it's a conspiracy conjured up by liberals to harm "race relations" (I really hate that phrase). Is every incident of white-on-minority racism fake news or just minorities complaining for complaining's sake? So who are the actual racists then, if it's not white supremacists?
At the Charlottesville white power rally, who were all those white guys with the white power symbols voting for? Clinton? Did they all vote for Obama? Were they all "color blind, we're all just Americans trying to get along" type people?
Statistics from the 2012 National Survey on Drug Use and Health reveal that 55% of past-month crack users are white. Black Americans, who make up 12.2% of the population, account for 37% of crack users, meaning that they are 3.5 times more likely than whites to be regular crack users. But black people are 21.2 times more likely than white people to go to federal prison on a crack charge.
CHICAGO --- Abuse and dependence on “hard drugs” (cocaine, hallucinogen or PCP, opiate, amphetamine and sedatives) are less common among delinquent African American youth than those who are non-Hispanic white, according to a new Northwestern Medicine study.
The study offers the first comprehensive picture of drug and alcohol abuse and dependence in delinquent youth after detention. The investigators followed youth up to their late 20s.
Even more surprising is what gets left out of the chart: Blacks are far more likely to be arrested for selling or possessing drugs than whites, even though whites use drugs at the same rate. And whites are actually more likely to sell drugs:
Whites were about 45 percent more likely than blacks to sell drugs in 1980, according to an analysis of the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth by economist Robert Fairlie. This was consistent with a 1989 survey of youth in Boston. My own analysis of data from the 2012 National Survey on Drug Use and Health shows that 6.6 percent of white adolescents and young adults (aged 12 to 25) sold drugs, compared to just 5.0 percent of blacks (a 32 percent difference).
okay.
here's a sample of how wrong you are.Quote:

How am I wrong when I know for a fact that the blacks are incarerated at a higher rate than whites even though drug use is similar? I already knew that when I mentioned the war on drugs. I already mentioned crack use is higher among blacks while meth use is higher among whites and they both carry the same sentence. You're horrible at this.

Again you said it was an epidemic and that its about rehab when it involves whites. You made that all up and still haven't offered any proof.

What's this post have to do with anything?
Why don't you answer the question. Why do blacks have a high rate of single parenthood?

Why do liberals deny that white conservatives aren't racists? I'm a mutt, but every "white conservative" friend I have is colorblind, while many of my liberal friends seem to hate someone for something based on skin color, religion, sex, heritage...etc.
Liberals tend to be exactly what they hate the most, and they're so tolerant in the process.
Look how obsessed you are. You haven't had your fix of racism and bashing so you felt the need to regurgitate this BS while Irma is on everyone's mind. Go take a nap.

You're circling all the way back around want to waste more time. I've answered this. You're going on my ignore list. You're blatantly wrong about clear cut things. And you don't want to admit it.
