You should watch the documentary "Crack" - it was very eye opening, and contrary to your argument. Their perspective is that Crack was very deliberately facilitated in poorer communities. Less of a "hey those are our drugs, and you guys can't have them and more of a "if we feed you drugs, you'll be too busy fighting amongst yourselves perspective. I'm guessing the truth is somewhere in the middle.
