In 1989, George Bush gave a speech about crack. During the speech he pulled out a bag of crack and said “this bag was seized right across the street from the White House in Lafayette park.”
Turns out, his speech writers had the idea to pull out a prop during his speech and in order to make it believable they had the DEA plant crack on this random 18 year old black kid. They lured him there. He didn’t even know where the White House or Lafayette park was. When he got there, they arrested them.
The plot was discovered by a journalist.

What journalist

Gary Webb

And then Gary Webb killed himself after he revealed that the CIA let crack infiltrate black communities through drug cartels making deals with the CIA. His wife left him and his career was ruined for exposing the drug war as a war against people of color.

There’s a really well done movie called Kill the Messenger (x) I suggest everyone should watch. It was done in partnership with his family and details the events from beginning to end.

Do we know the name of the “random 18 year old black kid” who was framed by the United States Government for a crime he didn’t commit?

Update:
His name is Keith Jackson. He has a wife and family now, and lives in the Baltimore/DC area. Unsurprisingly, he doesn’t want anything to do with what happened to him. The charges against him for the Lafayette case were dropped, but he received a 121 month sentence for distributing drugs near a school. Keith Jackson was a senior in high school when he was arrested. He was released from prison in 1998, 10 years later.
We have to remember all of the time that was taken from him. We have to remember that he wasn’t just “some random 18 year old black kid.” The government chose him to become a caricature of who they wanted the “enemy” to be in the War on Drugs because he is Black. Remember Webb’s thesis.
Remember Keith Jackson’s name. Remember his story.

1.  Let’s stop the bullshit. 

Gary Webb didn’t kill himself he was murdered.  No way in hell do I fucking believe that Gary Webb committed suicide by shooting himself twice in the head.

2.    Rick Ross admitted that he believes Gary was murdered because they were still working on their documentary (American Drug War) while Ross was still in prison at the time.  As Ross said, “The last time I talked to Gary, he still seemed adamant about continuing with his investigation.”

3. Then 10 years after his death the CIA admits they purposely destroyed Webb career and life and still target him until his death.

I don’t believe for a second that Gary Webb shot himself twice in the head. 

He was murdered because he exposed how The CIA, the government, and Satan aka Ronald Reagan purposely flooded the black community with drugs.   

Is all of this true?

Yes, I did a project about The War on Drugs and how conservatives tried to create another campaign for voters to get behind with The War on Gangster Rap.

That’s when I was introduce to Gary Webb work. You often see me speak on what he revealed about the Reagan Administration and how Ronald Reagan was the fucking devil that I am glad that he is rotting away in hell right now.

Gary Webb did not commit suicide by shooting himself twice in the head.

History has taught me that a story about a whistle blower committing suicide is a huge red flag.

When folks start spilling the tea on the government, the government’s first reaction is to silence them.

Killing them is one way. Smear campaigns are another.

Pay attention.

Also like… it’d be kind of hard to shoot yourself in the head a second time because head wounds are usually instantly or near-instantly fatal… like, they expect us to believe this load of crap?
