What's fascinating about this is that in a different conversation about the "racist drug war", blacks will fervently deny that blacks take illegal drugs at a higher rate. Here, Shaun King is basically admitting it. Odd.

The argument they always tell me is Blacks are supposedly hit with worst punishments for drugs than if the same White person was caught doing it. Which is what they're afraid of.

Although I would prefer to argue why should anyone (who is not a pharmacist) sell drugs? It's always been a shit industry plagued with violence that leaves entire communities decimated.

I'm not a believer that marijuana or fentanyl offer any real benefits other than getting stoned or a temporary buzz that might even kill you.
