Do You Think Crack Was Purposely Distributed by the Government During the Reagan War on Drugs?
Question by beyawnsay1061: Do you think crack was purposely distributed by the government during the Reagan War On Drugs?
Do you agree or disagree with this suspicion?
It is believed by some that in an effort to incarcerate and/or kill people in the black communities, the CIA helped to make the drug “crack”, a cheap base form of cocaine, readily available in such communities.
Ironicaly this plot is said to have been put into action right around the Regan War on Drugs years. Possibly to make it seem as though the then president was against drugs.
Crack has been blamed for the destruction of many poor black communities by causing hostility within the communities (turf wars), babies being born addicted to crack (crack babies), homelessness, and death.
What do you think… and why?
Yes, crack was there before Reagan… It’s not suggested he was the one in the kitchen cooking it up. But it is circa his presidency when it escalated to the extremes we see the results of now.
I’m aware this isn’t LATE BREAKING NEWS, thats why it isnt in the current events section. I’m just wondering how many people believe it and for what reasons.

No. Crack is simply a cheaper, more portable, more potent version of cocaine. It’s all about creating a product for the masses. There’s really nothing in it for the government. Now if drugs were legal and they could tax it, then yes, perhaps this theory would be plausible.

It wasn’t as darksided as you make it sound, but the US did go easy on major cocaine distributors responsible for the crack epidemic because of their ties to Anti-revolutionary forces in Central America.
