Nope. You've got your history wrong. The War on Drugs was started by Nixon and escalated by Reagan. By the early 90s, the political climate was such that the majority of every demographic was clamoring for tougher drug control enforcement and increased jail time. Just to be clear, that not just white Americans, that's racial minorities as well. Even if someone had objections to this type of legislation, the environment was so toxic that it was political suicide to oppose it.

That is why we have the extreme and insane drug laws we have now...

Nope. The meme didn't. However, the issue of race has been embedded into the war on drugs since Nixon kicked it off, and it has had a devastating effect on African American communities in the US. Republicans often point out that it was Bill Clinton who signed the most egregious legislation into law as a way of driving a wedge between the African American community and Democrats - much like your meme seems to do. However, this overlooks what happened to bring about that legislation. The fact remains that it was the Republicans who were in control of the House of Representatives at the time the legislation passed. I'm just trying to give the full historical context.

If you don't believe me, there are plenty of articles out there that do a much better job explaining it than I do - but that's the gist of it.

So push your narrative somewhere else.
Here's a fact for you.
Cops killed more unarmed African Americans under Obama

And your seeing what you want to see.
I'm from the UK, so I don't 'have a horse in that race'
Democrats, republicans are the equivalent of our Labour and Conservative on the UK.
PRIVATISATION is the biggest SCAM EVER.
That's why the politicians and police have forgot who they work for

What I read ----> "You're challenging my world view and I don't like it."

Everything I've said is accurate - you can look that shit up. And if you didn't give a damn about U.S. politics, why the hell are you so upset that I offer a counter-narrative to the one you offer? Why would you offer a poorly constructed and humorless meme in the first place, if you don't care?

Re: Cops under Obama? Are you kidding me? If I was a racist police officer and the first black man was elected president, how do you think I'm going to react? I'm going to abuse my power that much more to spite him. So, yes, more unarmed African Americans were killed by cops under Obama. I'd be surprised if that wasn't the case.

ALL LIVES MATTER is like this:

Your girlfriend loses a child and suspects there was foul play - resulting in protest.

Then some IDIOTS form a group that says "women lose kids all the time"

Said " I have no horse in that race "
They doesn't mean it won't affect me 6 degrees down the line or family over there

And since you're so smart, change your name to bill.

You don't even get the innuendo.
