AUUSN 823 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 THE WAR ON MARIJUANA IN BLACK AND WHITE Billions of Dollars Wasted on Racially Biased Arrests Over-Policing: Between 2001 and 2010, there were over 8 million pot arrests in the U.S. That’s one bust every 37 seconds and hundreds of thousands ensnared in the criminal justice system. Wasted Time and Money: Enforcing marijuana laws costs us about $3.6 billion a year, yet the War on Marijuana has failed to diminish the use or availability of marijuana. Staggering Racial Bias: Marijuana use is roughly equal among Blacks and whites, yet Blacks are 3.73 times as likely to be arrested for marijuana possession. https://www.aclu.org/report/war-marijuana-black-and-white?redirect=criminal-law-reform/war-marijuana-black-and-white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexava 6,973 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 As usual, pull up his record and make it ok he was killed....meanwhile you know while they are suspended they are paid right? You know what that's called to me and you? A vacation. Every time it's the police it's don't know what has really happened....waiting for facts. Meanwhile the victim it's he took karate so he's aggressive, he sold cigarettes, he owed child support shows his character (not anybody on this board that I remember, maybe one or two but generally). Even that Stephen a Smith thread everybody went in on him without actually listening to what he really said.... ok he was killed? Who said that? Look at the comment it was replying to.

cooltigger21 0 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 Cole you really need to learn to read better. Better yet take off your tinfoil hat an get your head out of your ass while your at it. Nobody has ever said that anyone deserved to die. The truth is we don't know what happened except for he suffered a spinal injury and died. We think we know what happened but we don't for certain. We'll find out and the appropriate action will be taken then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUUSN 823 Posted April 28, 2015 Share Posted April 28, 2015 "These problems, largely, have their root in the first matter highlighted above – that many municipal police departments face increasing and unrelenting pressure from city hall to fill increasingly wide gaps in revenue with money from fines and citations. Even a well-intentioned police officer who respects freedom, the citizenry, and vulnerable populations can succumb to temptation when his paycheck and his ability to feed his family is put on the line. And in those cases, where legitimate offenses do not occur, he will be sorely tempted to create them, and to create them among the portion of the populace that is least likely to complain and least likely to be believed when they do complain: non-wealthy black citizens." http://www.redstate.com/2015/03/15/many-conservatives-blowing-it-ferguson-doj-report/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im betting the po po had had their fill of this guy. Lol. That was the topic? Really? How did you come to that conclusion? Its idiotic to speak at length about whether or not Gray deserved to be killed. It seems quite obvious he did not under the circumstances that are known. However, the question is could he have avoided placing himself so persistently in those circumstances? He didn't and was arrested 20 times on charges ranging form possession to burglary and assault. Ya think law enforcement gets tired of seeing the same guys defiantly doing the same stupid s*** over and over again? As humans i'd say its a safe bet they do. That in no way justifies his killing but he put himself there, - did he not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
