Did you really just type addicts only got locked up when they did something illegal?Addicts weren't getting locked-up unless they did something illegal or became a nuisance. Even if they did, they took them to the hospital to 'dry out', then put them in the county jail, not prison. Majority of them got locked-up on purpose during the winter because they were homeless.
It was the cats that were actually dangerous to the community that got knocked for years.
I was just in another thread on Bernie and people don't recognize the climate that led to that crime bill. Not excusing it, but that shyt didn't just magically appear out of nowhere.
People in the communities hardest hit by violent crime wanted that bill.
People need to look at the late 80s / early 90s annual murder numbers for places like NYC vs now.
Powder takes time to hit, and you can't smoke it. You can but you are wasting most of itWhy couldn't they have just kept it as powder and not started rocking it up
Len Bias wasn’t shot to death breh. He snorted coke and his heart couldn’t take it, he was celebrating going to the NBA it was his first time.I gotta agree to a certain extent. Only cats that were really in it understand. The crack wave was way more than rap lyrics. EVERYONE was affected by rocks in someway. One minute u having Easter with all your normal family next minute your whole family split over your favorite unc stealing goods or your favorite aunt (or your own moms) in jail for prostitution. 12 year olds quitting school to commit murder. Local sports stars GUARANTEED to go D1 shot dead in broad day. -see Len Bias
Then only to find out your best homeboy gets jammed up with some knuckle head. They charge him bc he was in the trap, not selling anything at all. His moms let two dealers trap out her garage. They take everyone to jail. Your mans gets 35 years just for being in that garage playing dominoes.

I would hope that is the only time
My point is you don't take them to the hospital to dry up, you put them in rehab. You do know you still get a record when you get locked up, and life becomes harder right, even if it was just jail? You can lose your job that fast, and the spiral starts. But you even claimed they were homeless, and chose to be locked up. You don't think that is some dire straits shyt that needs to be fixed? Jail isn't for you to get food, and shelter.
See how fukked up black people have gotten to the point you don't think that shyt is crazy in the world's richest country!
You are just proving my point. If we are this far gone, what makes you think white society feels they should help us?
I feel like in certain cities even during the crack epidemic heron was still king (New Orleans, Baltimore, Buffalo) just off top.
The needle is worse than the pipe as well.
Anita didn’t, but these cats did
Wow that’s wild.

We can do this all day, because the drug world was my thing since i was littleYou're still trying to force a narrative anachronistically. Addiction wasn't viewed the way it is now so saying they should have treated it is like me saying 'They should have used toilets instead of pissing in the streets in the 17th Century.'
Your point is only valid if you don't put much stock in history and try to revise it.
Misdemeanor convictions don't stop you from doing anything and the vast majority of addicts put in jail went for shyt like shoplifting, vagrancy, tresspassing, etc.
