He never promised, everyone (including myself) just assumed he would because he seemed like a real liberal in 2008.

He's actually done everything he can to make marijuana law enforcement harsher.

This is just observation from a small sample, but it seems there is far more individual sales in the black community.

I have never seen whites sell individual grams, buds, etc for $5 or $10. I have never seen less than 1/8th oz sold by whites.

I have never seen 1/8th sold by blacks...

The usage may be the same, but is the sales are much more than that can explain it.

I will never understand this deal about pot. It's simply not worth the effort and we all know it. Especially since alcohol is legal, how stupid can something get? Pot ain't shit, to treat like it's been treated is beyond ridicuous. Makes no sense at all.

So you're saying disproportionate economic success in these communities is the issue? INTERESTING.

That could be it, I'm not sure. But if all you sell is dime bags rather than 1/8, 1/4, or more in sized, then your client base is buying from you more often, increases the likelihood of being caught.

Now I don't know if my viewpoint of this is valid, because it is limited, but that is my perception. If I went to the white people i knew who sell weed, and asked for $10 worth, they'd laugh their asses off. If I went to a black guy I know and asked for an 1/8th, he's ask if I was trying to take his business away.

That's not the problem. Cops bust white people smoking, they just take the drugs, gives them a verbal "lesson", and are let go. Not saying it happens all the time but it does. I witnessed it personally hanging around a bunch of rowdy white boys in college.

Whole nother story for the darker pigmented. Some involves batons.
