    The President’s call to impose the death penalty on drug dealers reverts to “New Jack City”-era language about street gangs and the implied threat of black and brown pushers: http://nyer.cm/hfLKG51 pic.twitter.com/ujfowxPZnS

        Guess he forgot the Docs/Pharma who are the true kingpins of the opioid epid. I've spent the better part of my career working in this area.

        He'll look to pardon a treasonous administration. Defend racist cops who are murdering ppl with cell phones on their own property. Yet, looks to the death penalty as the solution for drug offences. #racistGop #StephonClark

        A president, through faulty policies, can be responsible for far more deaths than any drug dealer. What penalties does POTUS suffer in such cases?

        Are you guys suggesting more minorities are dealers than majorities? That's pretty damn racist.

        See US drug policy circa 1980's for the full answer. Drug policy in this county is always racialized.

        Whether what you say is true or not, that becomes moot. Evil comes in many colors, shapes, and forms. I know of a lot of Russians that deal drugs in my city. They’re just as evil as black or Latino dealers. C’mon.

        The point is this: Trump is raising the idea of death penalty for drug dealers, to appeal to people who see drug dealing in terms of race.

        If we're going to have the death penalty for drug dealers, shouldn't we have it for people who got us into an illegal war?

        Trump is permanently stuck in the past and will be left there alone with all the other sad old GOP white men who believe they can take our country back to the 1950s. #Resist

        And street gangs ARE a major terror in this country, and should be dealt the harshest penalties, including death. Liberal media loves to portray blacks as the forever victims.

        Just wondering if the death penalty applies to the Sackler family, mega GOP donors and the billionaires behind the opioid crisis. I’m gonna go our on a limb and say no. That’s just for brown street thugs, not white pharmaceutical company owners.

        Nothing at all, to do with Opioid Crisis. Blame it on Blacks, always solves the problem, right? Lock up, kill some Blacks & claim you're on it, fighting, the menace. Pharma, not Blacks are the basis of crisis, gonna arrest them, death penalty?
