I don't understand the need to use the word 'Whites'.

Heroin has spiked and whites correspond to ~70-80% of the population, so obviously there will be many white addicts.

The 'Drug War' exists to fight heroin usage overall; it's not targeted at a race.

Because heroin sale and use was mostly confined to poor and minority communities. Now a different population is consuming them that happens to be white and suburbanite.
