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

No doubt. The white kids had a support system though.. Black kids.. :francis:

Also all the people saying dumb shyt and blaming rappers, out here doing your best Tipper Gore in the 90’s impression. Please explain why country ass midwestern white folks was out here dying to the point that it became a National emergency on this shyt. I promise you those people weren’t listening to fukking future.

There are underlying issues to this stuff and in many cases this can be very complicated. Stop trying to simplify this just because your brain is incapable of understanding that

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.

Breh, that's not how per-100,000 figures work at all. :dwillhuh:



Let's say Wyoming has a population of 1 million and they have 200 people die of gunshots. Oregon has a population of 4 million and they have 400 people die of gunshots. Would you just claim "Oregon is more dangerous" because they had more gunshot deaths? No, that would be stupid, Oregon is going to have more of ALL deaths because they have a bigger population.

So you do per-100,000 numbers. Simple division shows that in Wyoming, 20 out of every 100,000 people died of gunshots. But in Oregon, just 10 out of every 100,000 died of gunshots. So a random person in Wyoming is twice as likely to die of gunshot as a random person in Oregon.

Those raw "deaths per 100,000" figures have NOTHING to do with how much change their was year to year, that would be a "% change" figure.


And since you asked, 37 overdose deaths per 100,000 Black people in 2020 means that about 15,500 Black folk died of opiod overdose that year.

Can you tell me the total number by race while you wait for someone to do the math for you moron?

Waits for more high school talk. Stfu.
You just take the percent and times it by the number of people, you fukking moron :mjlol:

if the death rate is 1:100,000 and there’s 1,000,000 people, then ten people died.

you’re legitimately fukking retarded if you don’t understand how basic math works. :mjlol:

What are the total numbers of overdoses by race. Stop with the number gymnastics. Percentages per 100000 :mjlol:
There's no way you are this retarded breh no way:mjtf:

Can we really blame him for being this ignorant? Isn't this more an indictment of our education system, our nation, ourselves?

exorbitant legal fees
Almost every street drug is cut with fentanyl now - all of them. Heroin, meth, coke, molly - you name it - it's likely it has fentanyl in it. Fentanyl is powerful (80-100 times stronger than morphine) and it is notoriously hard to measure correctly plus you have completely unskilled people mixing it. So, just a minuscule amount over, and it can kill you. No fukking thanks

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

nikkas do percs and shyt that get made in labs. They are all fenty pills. As someone who got 5s from my doctor post knee surgery, I get it. The high is great, and makes everyday shyt feel like a movie. That being said, you have to be smarter and stronger than that shyt.

That's why I don't get how nikkas out here still doing ANYTHING.
