If we turn most latinos into enemies, that is what they will be.
No...
It's not me and mine against you and yours...
But it is also not about having selective amnesia:
So much reflects brown vs black rivalries, gang turf clashes, and/or how drugs wound up in our less well off communities.
I and others do recall the origins, when heroin (not cocaine) came to plague our communities, i. e., after the Urban Rebellions of the sixties and seventies...
In more recent years, came in 'crack'/drugs for guns/to arm contras/start up secret wars/meddle in other folks biznis, in other parts of the Americas/ad naseum....
Those who let their emotions rule them, reveal they fail to use their heads, make claims not backed up by facts, i. e., since it did and does take corrupt people at the top to aid other death dealers, however much backwardness and ignorance lead some of our own to deliver the dope, which others also buy too unaware of the damage it does to us all...
A few here are quick to quote Malcolm X, fail to recall why the Chinese Communist 'solution' to their drug addicts etc. were so drastic, i. e., because the British imperialists also used drugs to quell their desire for self and collective determination...
Some here not only fail to recall our stories: Also world history...In both cases, those who fail to learn from the mistakes of the past, are bound to repeat them, via the present...
