    Did I say media or those in charge. You try again.
    And even if this solitary black kid gets attention it doesn't translate into actual concern about black victims as evidenced by decades of the drug war. So miss me with your parading of a single individual to make the argument we're in this together because we're not. You and your ilk make damn sure of that.

    I don't want anyone to die. You can't find a single post to support that. I've learned from your ilk to turn a blind eye.

    Its you and your ilk who fail to make the connection. You think you're immune to this? You think its one kid affected? Laughing my ass off at your utter ignorance. Keep it up, foolish one.

    Oh stop lying through your teeth. You DO WANT "my ilk, aka white people" to die. You can't wait. You said...'do we need to care (fam) its red state hooked n dying...pass the potatoes, please'.
    I see you, TDK.

    My ilk is NEVER immune to a single atrocity in this country check the history books and the news youngin.
    My focus doesn't need to be on a problem that's already being seen as a call to therapeutic intervention. What would you have us do as black people that isn't already been done?
    It's been seen as a medical issue and not a legal one. They are getting care and sympathetic attention so what would you have us do?
    Shed some tears for you Ms. Bliss.
    Shuck and jive for you?
    Smh beat it, your horseshit is apparent

    There's a theory that the legalization of marijuana in throughout the West and Pacific has caused the black market 'organized crime' to increase. Since the profits from marijuana have diminished throughout the West after legalization, drug dealers have turned to other narcotics, such as heroin.

    Mostly because when there was a drug problem in the community from heroin to any other drug the media mostly ignored it. Plus the pols who are mostly White never gave a rat's butt until the opiod to heroin use exploded in the White community. Plus,Blacks are more likely to go to jail on a drug charge than a White person. Getting off the subject a bit the weed stores in the states where weed is smoked recreationally are owned by Whites and not Blacks since a crimminal record prevents them from owning a weed shop.

    So you didn't give a fuck when it was crack?
    You sound like an angry baby. Who exactly are you flailing your short arms at?

    So crack was intentional, but heroin is what...an accident?
    There is a stark contrast because they are POLAR drugs. There was a lot of violence with crack users, because thats what the drug did to people.

    Heroin is a suppresive. They become zombie-like, comatose and sleep. Many od and die. This is why its flown under the radar...petty robberies versus violent crimes. Its the nature of the different highs. You do get that, right?

    You really think it's being played up as a DISTRACTION to the crack crisis?? The hell? Seriously the most ridiculous theory l've heard. And you're normally so on point.


    'Estimates show that the heroin epidemic costs nearly $22 billion annually. ( but TDK bitched about 'obesity' costs as Mr.Taxpayer. This though..."Should we care, fam?..nope") Smh.

    Heroin abuse is the cause of over 100,000 incarcerations yearly. Also, about 11,000 deaths occur every year from addiction-related causes. Heroin is responsible for over 500,000 annual cases of diseases that could have been prevented.'

    Nope, not even a little bit. Good riddance.

    I don't know what to tell you. I didn't create this "mutual animosity" nor is it my job to fix. If your enemy is destroying himself, let him. Like I said before, you can feel how you want. @Bliss shouldn't have asked the question if you guys didn't want to know the answer.

    Please stop with the phony outrage. You knew you were trolling when you asked a bunch of black guys who are trying to dodge getting shot by police everyday what they thought about largely rural, red state hicks ODing from opiates. Then you wanna do a reverse "To Kill a Mockingbird" by showing a black victim of the epidemic ("Now imagine...IF THE VICTIMS WERE BLACK!")

    Nobody's stopping you from being concerned. Stop trying to force people to give a fuck.

    LOL @ the conservative victimhood trip.

    You're barking up the wrong tree here, woman. Post up on Breitbart or racist site for the concern you're searching for

    I too see the agenda Bliss is trying to push with her last two threads, but coming at this from another viewpoint, all told, according to the House Appropriations Committee, a bill being proposed includes an increase of $781 million for fighting the opioid epidemic. Thats, all of our tax dollars being spent, so we should all have some awareness of this issue.

    Abd what agenda is that, Loki? Posting about a horrific death of a white female ...and not one single solitary condolence for her? Not even you could summon up any sympathy.
    We constantly support you here when a BM is killed because we feel the pain with you...You don't give two shits except to come in here and "see Bliss's agenda" like I'M reporting irrelevent news.

    NO ONE has discussed the Opiate epedemic on this forum, only BP's issues are allowed, covering every topic imaginable.

    But mention anything else that affects us, and one gets called Agenda-driven and racist. I don't give a crap about what "you see", l'm just glad the PUBLIC sees what's going on here.
