The federal government released a new batch of data Monday about drug prosecutions in 2016, and the statistics show that African-Americans and Hispanics are still prosecuted far more frequently than white people for nearly every type of drug crime.

The black share of people arrested for drug offenses has ranged from 23 percent (in 1980) to 41 percent (in 1991). Blacks remain far more likely than whites to be arrested for selling drugs (3.6 times more likely) or possessing drugs (2.5 times more likely).

And do NOT try and convince us that if 20 whites and 20 blacks and 20 hispanics were all caught dealing drugs, that ONLY 2 whites would be arrested while ALL the blacks and hispanics would be arrested. That's just BULL SHIT, and we all know it.
