I live in Cook County (the one w/ the largest black line).
Ive been caught w/ weed by cops and have been let go...I got a friend who had a half pound in his backpack while smoking a blunt (
), cops rolled up on him and searched his bag. Dude only had to go to lock up and was out the same night...shyt got expunged from his record. Cops really only use weed to use proper cause to search your vehicle for other shyt. They arent really trippin if the only thing on you is a dime bag and you getting high on the lake. I used to work in a restaurant and a gang of us (pretty much all black) would smoke downtown w/ no issues.
You can even ask a police officer and they will tell you how they use weed to find other things on people...they arent just going around locking cats up for getting high.

Much respect.
I hate being the a$$hole, but I'm gonna play devil's advocate here.
the stats that I've seen in here are kinda skewed, we shouldn't be looking at the ARREST RATE between blacks and whites.
cuz that isn't really the argument now is it?
IMO, if you are breaking the law you are taking that chance that you will be arrested. it really doesn't matter what the next man does.
just because white ppl get away with it more often doesn't mean that blacks should NOT be still arrested for breaking the law
we KNOW there is racism. we know that the law is skewed against minorities. so why even take that chance? we know that blacks have it tougher in courts. we know that cops are targeting minorities more. so why make it easy on them by falling in their trap?
this is like being mad at the cop that pulled you over for driving 100 mph on a highway when there are clearly other drivers doing the same thing.

It's about equality!!!!!! EQUALITY!
Why should we be getting arrested for something at five times the rate of white people and charged at five times the rate of white people for something they can do just fine without even having to worry due to laws, racial, privilege etc?
This is the type of thinking the powers that be want. Take away you're rights and privileges (what little you have) little by little, demobilize you, and make you docile and subservient and willing to not stand up for yourself...not to offend anyone.
Don't risk it..don't do it...while others do it fine...and don't get caught....and justify injustice against us just cause...why think like this?
I should have the right to smoke weed whereever I want and I should have the right to wear what I want and no racist ass government or officials or whatever can stop me from doing something that doesn't harm anybody!
I'm not falling into these traps...I refuse to I too old for that.

So......now that weed has been decriminalized in certain states/cities......are all those people who got criminal records because of marijuana gonna get their records expunged or naw?
most likely not, because it was still a crime when they committed it. On a federal level, its still illegal tho. So even if the state pardons they still have that fed time.So......now that weed has been decriminalized in certain states/cities......are all those people who got criminal records because of marijuana gonna get their records expunged or naw?
Funny enough I was talkin about this over some power pack with a friend. The irony of cacs becoming wealthy from an industry that ruined millions of black lives is so America. The legalized Weed business should be non-violent drug offenders get out of jail/having a record card and the dealers of weed should be gettin first dibs. But then I remember that the Drug War was really a war on the black community and the social rights movements of the 70s and everything makes sense again, you making your thread pointing this shyt out just shows that the American Machine works as well as it did after every civil rights "breakthrough".

Who wants to partner with me and start a weed business in Denver?
whats the relevance? Because the black caucus supported the laws it makes them any less racist? Black caucus was wrong....Africans sold some slaves to whites, and there were blacks who lived in the house and enforced things for masta...does that make slavery any less racist?
