Weed is the drug of choice for black teens, while more and more white teens are turning to Cocaine.

seriously cocaine? gosh.
i’ve never smoked a day in my life so i have no idea what to tell you.
Those drugs are probably easier to get for those groups. Although, the drug of choice for both is cigarettes.
there this “white” guy in my class smoking and tring to make weed! at 14.x
That’s not necessarily true. I’m white, and I didn’t try cocaine until I was an adult. Weed, however, I tried at the age of 14.
weed is mellow and cheap, coke is nutty and expensive.
get it?
hmm..statistics huh? well im white. and i started smokin weed at a young age, i know plenty of other white people who have smoked it at a younger age than i have, which was 10. i didnt try coke til i was 15. you cant always rely on statistics. i know black teenagers who have never smoked in their life. the best thing to do, is just stay away from the people that influence it. ive had my share of experience, but im pretty much done with it all.
blacks are smarter lmfao…..weed is natural and from the earth…
who want to become a crack head?
I never smoke weed, or did any other street drugs.
Cost is the factor, as well as social stigma. Cocaine cost tons more than pot (up to 9 times as much) and white kids in the burbs have more expendable cash.
And also, black teens view anything outside of weed as being crackhead-mode. Even though cocaine is more expensive, they’ll still view someone as a crackhead if they do it.
Well, marijuana is usually the “starter” drug for many people.
Years ago, I knew a black man who used weed and cocaine in the past. He gave up all drugs because of his job, but told me he really missed smoking weed and that it was by far his drug of choice. He said it was relaxing and he especially loved to smoke weed when he was being intimate with women. He said weed made his sexual experiences seem to last a lot longer than they really did. It distorted his sense of time and put him in a slower, dreamlike state.
I wouldn’t know. I have never smoked weed or any other narcotic. I think a lot of it is just cultural.
