Researchers at the University of Minnesota found that malt liquor is more heavily promoted in black neighborhoods, and is also available in greater quantities and at lower prices in those areas. .The study compared neighborhoods in 10 U.S. cities, and found that economic status didn't play a role.
You've all seen them laying all over the city. .You've seen your residents walking down the street with a paper bag, drinking out of it at all times of the day. .All beer manufacturer's make a 40 oz. bottle. To name a few:
Pabst: .Busch: .Mickey's: .Colt45: .MGD: .Red Dog:, and of course, Old Milwaukee's Black Ice.
It found that low-income Whites, Hispanics and Asians areas normally do not have the ease of buying these malt liquors. And most Malt liquors are higher in alcohol content than a standard beer. .So why is that? .Do the beer companies know that it's easier and cheaper for black residents (who normally live in lower poverty areas) find it easier to buy one beer that gets them higher, quicker than conventional beers, or is it an oversight on their parts.
UH-UH, THEY KNOW IT, AND WE DO TOO.
With that, it's often much easier for younger teens to get ahold of the 40 oz'ers. .Geez, look at the gangsta songs put out today where they glorify getting buzzed on a 40 oz'er. .Detroit is plagued with this dilema, but so is Minneapolis, and Chicago, and Philadelphia and most major cities in the United States. .Is this how we want our people to live their lives? .Dead drunk or possibly dead?
Let us know.

Sizzling, Cynical, Aggrevating, Ominus, Unrelenting, Intolerable, Uncaring, but realistic enough to know that we can be proven wrong. We (the spouse) and I are 2 different individuals who think different, but see the world through rose colored glasses. Each of us have our own idealisms on how the world should, could, or would be run, but we are not you. We are us. Don't think for a second that we can think as you. We are also full nudists who run a nudist organization here in Minnesota. We accept the belief that "if God had intended us to be clothed, we would have been born that way". It's our lifestyle. We hate clothing, we hate tan lines, and we believe that the sun is beneficial to the body.
