Question

I have noticed a lot of racist persons talking about how black people are all gangsters, drug dealers etc. The funny thing about it though is that crack cocaine was first introduced into the black community by the way of white men. What happened was that there were some white persons and they sold drugs to a black man in order to make him sell it to the black community. And he did it obviously because of the financial benefits that that would bring him. The funny thing about it is that black man ended up in prison and those white men today are not in prison like they should be but ironically they are apart of anti-criminal tasks force whose job it is bring criminals to justice.

I personally think that some very powerful and influential people who we cannot see and whose existence we are not privy to personally did this to the black community in order to destabilize it. I also think the same thing has happened to Hispanics as well and that is why black and Hispanic communities have a very high level of gangs, drug dealers and the like.

I am not lying or anything. The tv channel Showtime brought a document about this but I can't remember the name of it. If anybody knows the name can you tell me please?

Also I personally think that they are individuals in very high position who has contributed and is contributing to the racial problem that exists between blacks and mexicans in certain communities (like L.A, California etc)

In my opinion the root is not really a racist thing, it's more of a class thing.

This is as old as history can show us. The "upper class", the ones that think they are stronger/better want the "under class" to stay weak, undereducated and so on so that they can be ruled easier. Look at history. The leading people got the education and so on, the poor people got just enough to stay alive. This is still happening in one way or the other all over the world and skin color really doesn't matter.

That kind of divide happened in th US too and who do you find at the "under" side? Poor immigrants and former slaves were in general poor, how could they possibly be anything else when they had not even owned the right to their own lives? But there are others that are poor, not only former slaves and the following generations. Those in power in the US benefits from keeping the poor people down, because through that they have a huge mass of people that they can control with simple means.

Ever seen people that poke fun at Americans for being so ignorant about the simplest things in the world? (Those you see at Jay Leno that says the most stupid things is a good example.) Ever wondered why people in other countries see Americans in general as slightly stupid? Well... who provides the most of the education in the US and who benefits from having citizens that doesn't know the facts so that they won't question their decisions? 1+1...

I've never seen anything that says that the South American drug dealers that came up with crack to make a better profit were white and that they targeted black people. Maybe they did, but I've never seen proof of it. Still, it doesn't matter in the long run. The idea is to look at the conditions for people and where it was most likely to spread, no matter what the color of the seller and buyer was. Crack cocaine was created to be a cheaper drug so it's only natural that it spread among those that had little to spend. The poor people. If the most of the rich people had been black and most of the poor people had been white it would still have spread among the poor people.

The drug dealers act out of their own interests and their interest is to make money. I don't think that they are overly concerned with politics even though some do venture into politics. On the other hand I do think that they are other persons, politicians or people that's powerful by other means that do take advantage of the situation. They have to see it all as a win win situation. the drug dealers takes the risks and they have to do almost nothing. The drugs keeps the "under" people down, they get even worse educations, they don't think of much more than the drugs, and they fight between each other so their focus is far from what the "upper" guys are doing.
