Democratic mega-donor Ed Buck was sentenced to 30 years in federal prison for his role in the overdose deaths of two men at his apartment in West Hollywood, California.
Last year, Buck was found guilty of plying men with drugs during sexual encounters, which led to the overdose deaths of two black men – Gemelle Moore and Timothy Dean.
Buck, 67, lured vulnerable black men – many suffering from homelessness, addiction, and/or poverty – to his home for sex sessions and to inject them with methamphetamine and drug them with sedatives such as gamma hydroxybutyric acid and clonazepam, federal prosecutors wrote in a sentencing memorandum. Buck reportedly used social media sites, dating websites, escort services, and referrals from prior victims to find new men. Buck allegedly would even pay a finder's fee for referrals.

I don't think he is typical of wealthy Democratic Party donors Herman.
On the subject of Identity.
A majority of Black Americans say being Black is central to how they think about themselves and shape their identities, even as many have diverse experiences and come from various backgrounds, according to a new report by Pew Research Center. About three-quarters of Black people said so despite where they come from, their economic status or educational backgrounds.
Overall, 14% say being Black is only somewhat important to their identity and 9% say it has little to no impact, highlighting the diversity of thought among Black Americans, which include U.S.-born Black people and Black immigrants, and different ethnicities, political party affiliations and ages.
"What our data suggests to me is that being Black is important to all Black people, according to our findings, regardless of the intersections of their identity," said Kiana Cox, research associate and co-author of the report. A "majority of Black people, 76%, said that being Black was really important to them."

Prolly true, but there are so many reasons for Blacks to leave the democRATic plantation
They are "used" (in the fullest sense of the word) to keep democRATics in power at all levels of govt from top to City

Hell ya. Trump's Opportunity zones lifted more Blacks out of poverty that anything any previous democRAT or Republican president ever implemented. They were gone with the new administration and the gains Blacks made under Trump are gone.

In return, all they get back is words
Without them, the other side would rule always federally and in most states

Very few Blacks benefit from the democRAT party machine politics that keep most people in poverty.
US politics is so third worldish.
The Democrats and the Republicans only care about their rich donors.

I aint defending the traditional Republicans either. The Bushes, Reagan, Nixon, Ford, McCain, Romney and Dole were as bad as Clinton, Obama, Schumer, Pelosi, Warren and Biden. None of those pieces of shit had the backs of the working class. All of them are war mongering shills for defense contractors too.
