If you wanna get technical about it, cocaine was first widespread amongst natives and hispanics. Once it was introduced to the states, rich white people started getting into it because it was viewed as classy at the time.

Is that quite true? Rich & white would appear to have higher status than those down in the ghetto.

Perhaps it just shows that animal testing doesn't correspond on a 1-to-1 basis with humans.
