I don't understand your insulting tone. What do you find smug about this comment? That white people are the primary victims in the nations current epidemic?

I don't understand your insulting tone. What do you find smug about this comment? That white people are the primary victims in the nations current epidemic? That's a simple fact. The primary reason that black people were spared this time around is simply that doctors are significantly less likely to prescribe opiate painkillers to black folks (a bit of a positive effect of stereotypes about criminality).

If you're not picking up the smugness in his two comments then you must have a tough time with reading comprehension. Aside from that, it's not a white issue at all. Opiate addiction, including heroin, afflicts all communities, and in particular those of lesser means.
