It's amazing how you not only don't attempt to refute the statement:

D.M.T said:
It implies white people have tried more drugs, not that they use them more





but then double down on your bullshit.

More white people per capita have tried drugs in their lifetime than black people, but

more black people are regular or habitual drug users than white people.

That's what it clearly shows. I'm not sure why you are still arguing over the facts on the chart.

This it does not show. That they used more recently does not necessarily imply they are regular/habitual users.

Okay, let's say you're right- what it shows though is that in the past year or two years, black people are more likely to have used drugs than white people. While that may not be purely indicative of habitual use, typical drug use patterns don't indicate that people routinely use illegal drugs once or twice a year.

Even if it did, then you'd have to assume the same is true for white people, which would mean that in order for koods' assertion to be true, you'd have to consider a white guy who uses cocaine once every 3 years an addict, but a black man who uses once a year would NOT be an addict.

The statistic is too vague to build complex things on. "Illicit drugs" is heroin but also weed. It makes a huge whopping difference if one of the groups had a stronger preference for weed given the low harm involved with that drug.

But we don't know that, so we'll have to stick with Koods point that lifetime prevalence of drug use is 51% for whites and 45% for blacks.

Hes right about the inequality in arrests vs use prevalence:

Maybe not in Canada, as I assume y'all don't have any blacks, but we've got lot's of black fire-fighters.



Not none, but yeah black people make up a pretty small percentage of Canada's population compared to the US. Most are from the Caribbean.

Maybe white people are more discrete and responsible about their illegal drug use/selling?

Do black street dealers sell to strangers more often than others?  Yes, and that makes them a very easy target for law enforcement, who's fault is that fact?

Can we stop calling it "race" we're helping them by using this inappropriate inflection, the difference between humans if of different color skin is culture.




So if I start listening to rap and start smoking crack, i'll turn dark?




Certain people would call you a traitor, some would call you a wigger, others would call you a sympathizer.
I am aware of the differences of culture, I know where rap music came from; I appreciate it, some(rare)times I enjoy certain artists works, I understand where pants sagging came from (as a white teenager I did it too) now I know better, I am ashamed of it.
I know why they often eat pigs feet and fried chicken, This is not my culture and I cannot under any circumstances partake.
I understand the struggle socially, equality and economically of the median african american - does this make me hate myself? why the fuck should it?
I don't even hold my ancestors accountable for their actions with slavery, they didn't hunt and shackle the blacks they shipped over to the americas, these slaves were sold to them by their own people, its another part of history that you'r not often to hear about, black african slaves were sold to white men by their black african fellow countrymen.
Why should we be liable for how we were shown to treat these people. So in a nutshell, african slavery was the fault of black african people, they did it, we just bought and used a marketed commodity.
