Those numbers are based on surveys. It's junk science.

Blacks get arrested for drugs in about the same ratio to whites as they commit violent crime.



My sister has twin girls that are 15 and a few years ago they stole some booze from the house. They took the booze and snuck out at 3AM. They went to their schools playground with a bunch of kids from high school. They got fucked up and the cops came. Both of them ran and hid in bushes and were caught.

They were running from the cops and dove into bushes. But pretty white girls that lived in a place where the average house is over a million. No ticket or anything. Cops took them home and woke up their mom and they had their iPhones taken away for a month. That was all.

If they were black males doing the same the situation would have ended very differently.


If they were men of any color, you mean. Welcome to the real world.


What are the worse things that could happen to a minor who runs from a cop and hides in the US?



It could easily be spun into resisting arrest, which is a Class A Misdemeanor in most jurisdictions.


Death?
