Are there more minority drug users or white drug users?
Pot or other illegal drug possession and pot or other illegal drug selling occurs among minorities and whites in the United States. Some statistics have shown five times as many whites use pot and illegal drugs as minorities in the United States. However the war on drugs has, since its inception, seemed to target those who are Black, Latino or people of color. A competent drug lawyer will know about racial profiling to help you fight your drug arrest or drug prosecution. You should ensure that your marijuana defense attorney knows your situation and knows how to aggressively argue racial profiling to the judge and jury if it is applicable.
