Deconstructing Claims That Opposing Free Govt Funded Crack Pipes Is "Racist"

Philadelphia Inquirer recently published an article calling the outcry against the Biden administration initiative adding free "smoking kits" with meth or crack pipes to their opioid epidemic strategy "racist." As someone who has known many addicts and, sadly, more familiar with the realities of hard drugs through first hand experiences, people I care for, etc. I definitely have great empathy for people trapped in the desperation of addiction, so fentanyl testing kits, needle exchanges and thinks likely to save lives I'm all for. Apart from cutting yourself on a pipe that busted under the heat though, I just don't feel there's the same inherent danger in the delivery device when it comes to cocaine or crack. And pointing that out, or the fact that people using meth (mostly white, where I came from) or cocaine or crack end up highly stimulated, with libido in overdrive and inhibitions dropping away is not "racist."
