Black opiod overdose rate surpasses white overdose rate. no longer a white folks drug?

[Ineedmoney504]

I see it.. Public school system been doping young black boys up a little over 10 years now.. White teachers say we're too "hyper" and needed help focusing in class.. Now we see the side effects today..

Also been a super popular drug in black cities for the last 20 years. Perks, trains ect. It’s been hitting us in major black cities for the last 20 years. Sad to see

Why can’t people just stick to weed and call it a day?

It don’t hit the same. Plus good weed is high. They can buy a perk for less and be gon all day

the streets push it more than any educator

again don't fall into tryna push responsibility onto someone else

you gotta get outside & watch the process of how this is all happening

Not trying to pass the responsibility. Just pointing out how the public education system had a part in introducing medications to children in order to get them to relax..

that's an issue

what was happening in the halls bathrooms before during & after school is what had more impact

99.9% the first pill any of us popped was passed to us by a homie

Instead of saying, "This is terrible, what can we do to help?" It's "The numbers must be fake!"

Rising Black suicide rates for Black Men...
Rising Black opioid overdose rates....

All this tell me is Black People are hurting beyond words and are looking for unhealthy and permanent escapes...

Why percentages don't tell the real story. Before we talk solutions we get some understanding.


If 1 black person od'd on drugs in 2021 and then 3 people od'd in 2022 the rate would go up 2 hundred percent.

If 30000 whites od'd in 2021 and then 30001 of in 2022 the rate is going up by less then 1 percent.

Now we create a headline.

Africans Americans od'ing at 200 percent the rate of whites from 2021 to 2022.

Then we have morons in here thinking. Yea I knew blacks did more drugs a hyuck yuck. Retards.

I saw the same juelzing in the Black Male suicide rate increase thread.

Rather than be concerned...they wanna contest the information...like that cant be what Black Folks do. We dont do...THAT

And that is what causes many Black people to suffer in silence instead of getting help...cause they think they wont be taken seriously and feel they have no one they can talk to let alone confide in.

 

[Chip Skylark]

Does anybody even know any black people who do opiates besides lean?

Yes. Quiet as kept heroin has always lurked in the black community. The real issue are the pills.

I’ve talked about it on earlier threads. It’s terrible

 

[Coolin']

I believe it. Last year, there were like 15 Black people from my hometown that died from OD’ing on fentanyl-laced cocaine. Shyt is crazy out here.

This. Repped.

And I did damn near every drug out there. Weed is all I need.

He’s one of the go-to references I think about for popularizing this shyt in recent years. People trying to live that poppin pills in Ibiza life as a type of escapism and in an attempt to mimic the lifestyles of the rich and famous.

Problem is we don’t have the same support structure to pad our vices like whites do. Their insurance will send them to a luxury rehab resort. But our problems don’t just go away because we are on drugs. Same with food, alcohol, mental illness. This is why, whatever hits whites hits us 10x.

Drugs are fun. Just can’t be going crazy on that shyt. People have addictive personalities and self control issues.
