How exactly is it unfair to black males?
FULL DISCLOSURE: I think Van Jones is a lying sack of shiite.
Black folks, on the other hand, especially males, are CONSTANTLY given grief over marijuana. That sh!t shouldn't even BE illegal, but the enforcement of that bullsh!t law is far more heavily applied to blacks and that's just a fact.
if an item is illegal why are they doing it where they get busted? having a brain may be a prerequisite for not getting busted for being a dumb ass
