I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure you're going to have more of a certain race arrested if that certain race is more likely to be taking part in illegal activity. -

Marijuana needs to be legalized. It just does. -

adjusted knowledge,
"According to the 2011 FBI Uniform Crime report, Californian with the strictest gun laws in America based on the Brady scoring system , had the highest amount of gun murders in 2011."
Is that per capita or gross numbers? California is the most populous state in the US. According to the Brady ranking system that you mentioned Louisiana had 8.60 murders per 100,000, Oklahoma 3.43, and Arizona 3.32 higher than California (3.21) and that doesn't count a lot of states.

I was only touching on one topic where blacks and white statistically are using an illegal drug equally or close to equally. In this case marijuana. However, the arrest for the offense is disproportionate. -

Village Idiot, That is a good point. It is not per capita. They make up 14%+ of all gun murders in 2011, and have more than 12% of America's population. -

Just for information purposes, Freddy Grey has a long time continuation of getting into trouble with the law.
The point being is that until a complete medical report is openly offered to the public, it wouldn't be cleanly understood to why he went into a coma and died.

EndofMysteries
EndofMysteries here is a great question, where do YOU think they should be SHIPPED to?"
- Where do I think the looting and burning criminals should be shipped to? 2 options, 1. They are criminals, don't want a job don't want to be a productive member of society, instead want to live on free welfare, food stamps, and supplement all of their free stuff with stealing. But they like to pretend and make excuses saying they were held back and if their ancestors weren't sold into slavery their lives would be perfect now. Well if that hadn't happen they wouldn't even be here, so send them back to the countries of their ancestors. In Nigeria for example, thieves have their hands cut off if they are lucky, or a mob kills them and burns them alive. or 2. Make them front line infantry against ISIS.

"They're demoralized. They turned up in large numbers and voted for Obama. Now what do they have to show for it?"
thus the futility of valuing people, politicians or not, on race.
