They are partially right. The WOD was started as a method to imprison poor blacks on southern prison plantations. But equating drug users with drug dealers doesn’t fit. And fatherless families is not due to the WOD as to the war on black families via welfare, food stamps, Medicaid, etc which have made a father’s income unnecessary.

Urge ‘and’ end? How about they ‘urge an end’ instead?

Yeah, I was hoping we could go the whole thread without anyone noting that.

So what would the reverend Jesse propose to do to protect the lives and welfare of the victims of black criminals? If we just follow Jesse’s advice to quit arresting blacks for drug related offenses, what will that do to the communities that are their favorite targets?

When you are just a community organizer, you don’t have to come up with a solution that would actually work.

A couple of days ago I saw Jesse on TV talking about a Marshall project for Detroit. No matter which way you look, the black leader talking points are for less responsibility and more transfer payments.

I say that, BTW, as someone who thinks the WOSD (war on some drugs) was a big mistake and that pot should be legalized.

Solution: Don’t do drugs the problem ends.
