It is the drug crisis that is in epidemic proportions across the US including Alaska. People who are addicted to opiates are often your nice middle class neighbors. A lot of seniors are addicted to opiates.  Your rant is just shameful and ill informed of what is happening in 2017. There are many "white" folks with addictions who are stealing to support their habits. There are many teens who are white and middle class who are dying from opiate addictions whose parents have come forward demanding that their once innocent children who are dead now from those addictions be a example of what parents face when raising their children. . One clinic opened in Florida years ago to "treat" pain and was open by a pair of brothers who "treated" teenagers with opiates and it was after the deaths of so many "white" teens from "good" homes that started to bring this issue to the attention of the nation. The brothers are in jail now. So crime=young, poor minorities, stuck in your head and off you go.
