 You may find it racially insensitive, but it is absurd.  Think of
 a small market town of about 10,000 people.  It is in the nice 
 suburban country side about forty miles from the big rich city,
 where the retired stockbrokers go to live.  Now I am sure you could
 buy the usual drugs there if you looked hard enough and had the
 right contacts.  But they are not sold by large black gentlemen
 with big gold necklets standing on street corners.  In fact I do 
 not remember seeing one non-white resident there.  (The distribution
 of races in very uneven:  ocean-going ports have had black communities
 for centuries and most black people are in big metropolitan areas, 
 but when you come to small rural towns or fishing ports they are 
 almost entirely white, in fact 90% local and in-bred for generations).
