This is a terrible piece. A woman who is mad about her neighborhood and blames a local program for the neighborhood following lockstep with federal trends. Arguing for a return to the policing style of the crack panic as racial fairness is a thin veneer over “we got screwed: now burn it all down”.

Also I didn't think she was arguing for indiscriminately locking the addicts, she just couldn't help but notice policing was different when white people were involved...
