Maybe it has something to do with 250 years of slavery that made
Southern plantation owners, and New England mill owners rich, and
created wealth for America that black people never benefited from.
[R]ates and patterns of drug crime do not explain the glaring racial
disparities in our criminal justice system. People of all races use and
sell illegal drugs at remarkably similar rates. If there are significant
differences in the surveys to be found,they frequently suggest that
whites, particularly white youth, are more likely to engage in illegal
drug dealing than people of color.'' One study, for example, published
in 2000 by the National Institute on Drug Abuse reported that white
students use cocaine at seven times the rate of black students, use
crack cocaine at eight times the rate of black students, and use heroin
at seven times the rate of black students. That same survey revealed that
nearly identical percentages of white and black high school seniors use
marijuana. The National Household Survey on Drug Abuse reported in 2000
that white youth aged 12-17 are more than a third more likely to have
sold illegal drugs than African American youth.13 Thus the very same
year Human Rights Watch was reporting that African Americans were being
arrested and 'imprisoned at unprecedented rates, government data
revealed that blacks were no more likely to be guilty of drug crimes
than whites and that white youth were actually the most likely of any
racial or ethnic group to be guilty of illegal drug possession and
sales. Any notion that drug use among blacks is more severe or dangerous
is belied by the data; white youth have about three times the number of
drug-related emergency room visits as their African American
counterparts.
The racial bias inherent in the drug war is a major reason that 1 in
every 14 black men was behind bars in 2006, compared with 1 in 106 white
men. For young black men, the statistics are even worse. One in 9 black
men between the ages of twenty and thirty-five was behind bars in 2006,
and far more were under some form of penal control--such as probation or
parole. These gross racial disparities simply cannot be explained by
rates of illegal drug activity among African Americans, but they can be
explained by arbitrary enforcement by officers and prosecutors seeking
Federal financial backing which comes with arrests. Arrests, that if
they were made in "white" communities would cause a ferocious, political
backlash.
And now with the clock ticking down on the white majority, which will
become just another minority in 2040, bigoted whites are stressing-out.
White Republicans are more likely to own guns than white Democrats; by
2010 gun ownership among Democrats dropped to 22 percent but remained at
50 percent among Republican adults.

In its extreme form, gun worship is xenophobic and racist.
Self-proclaimed militias and many so-called doomsday łpreppers˛ warn of
an impending race war in which one must be prepared to defend oneąs home
and family against marauding and rapacious black and brown hordes.
This likely explains why whites are more likely to own guns than blacks
or Hispanics and why gun ownership is higher among middle class
households than poorer ones, according to Silverąs findings. And while
most gun-related homicides occur in urban areas, gun ownership is higher
in rural and suburban areas.
A majority of the American people don't want gun-nuts walking around
with loaded guns.

Guns - Gallup Historical Trends
If you were in a public place such as a restaurant or movie theater,
would you feel more safe -- or less safe -- if you knew concealed
firearms were allowed?
More safe Less safe No difference No opinion
2004 Nov 19-21
25% 65 8 2
A poll of registered voters conducted in April 2010 found that 57% feel
less safe when they learn that loaded concealed guns may lawfully be
carried in public. Fifty-six percent of registered voters oppose
allowing people to carry concealed guns in public, with 41% strongly
opposing concealed carry.
We need to be clear that racism is a working class issue. Racism
benefits the wealthy and powerful. For centuries, racism has been used
to generate incredible profits through the perpetuation of łjob ghettos˛
and differential wage levels and working conditions.
Racism is also a way for employers to attack our solidarity as workers.
As long as we allow racism to exist in our workplaces, we will face our
enemies divided and weakened.

The real problem, Peckerwood, is white guys in suits. White guys in
suits on Wall Street, in Washington D.C., extracting fossil fuel, and
operating corporations like Wally World where workers rely on food
stamps to survive.
But white guys in suits want you to think about black men, brown men,
saving fetuses, "Climate Change" deniers, Family Values, the 2nd
Amendment, and getting God back in school, anything but white guys in
suits. And they won't be happy until they are renting you the clothes
that you wear on your back.
The Feds gave $9 trillion dollars in cash, and loan guarantees to banks
when they failed. Now they want to take $4 billion or more from those
who use food stamps.
Politicians don't care about most of us, because the white guys in suits
have the money they need for there election campaigns. During the
savings-and-loan scandal of the 1980's - a scandal whose dimensions, by
today's standards, seem almost quaint - the banker Charles Keating was
asked by a congressional committee whether the $1.5 million he had
spread among a few key elected officials could actually buy influence.
"I certainly hope so," he replied. The Supreme Court, in its recent
Citizens United case, has enshrined the right of corporations to buy
government, by removing limitations on campaign spending.
With publicly financed election campaigns, the politicians would return
to working for the public, not white guys in suits.
