The DOJ? BAHAHAHAHA😂

Cry 🐥 baby

Yeah then we'll ask them to investigate themselves. You don't know what you're asking for.

​@@nostalgically_nope9983yeah- cuz the GOP is statistically the most ray-2-the-cist party. Ofc the DOJ would be conducting the investigation. It's called common sense

No thanks the DOJ is more corrupt

Yup, isn't that how it always "works?" 🤔 🙄 😒

Isn’t that how it always works? The absurdity of that BS is super obvious to anyone with half a brain, but for some reason, it continues. Why? SMH 🤦‍♂️

I live here and it used to be really bad. Now it's bad all around!!! No police presence and homeless people smoking them blue fentanyl pills! It's gotten so bad. Now it's so dangerous to live in the same place I grew up that it's time to go!

Yeah, because laws are racist. At what point does holding people accountable for their actions turn into injustice? Serious questions. I feel like more criminals get arrested than non criminals. I feel like we're ignoring rhe elephant in the room when we completely disregard the fact that actions have consequences.

@@Brando23Commando You raise an important point about accountability and the consequences of actions. Actions indeed have consequences, and holding people accountable is crucial. However, the discussion about systemic racism in police practices isn't about ignoring criminal behavior but about ensuring that law enforcement is fair and just for everyone. For example, the DOJ report on the Phoenix Police Department highlights that Black people are arrested seven times more than white people for marijuana possession, and Hispanics are arrested three times more than whites for the same offense. This is particularly striking given that studies show the majority of people who use marijuana in the U.S. are white. These disparities suggest that certain communities are disproportionately targeted, which undermines trust in the justice system. Addressing these issues doesn't mean letting criminals go free; it means striving for a system where everyone is treated equally under the law. This includes ensuring that non-criminals are not unfairly targeted or subjected to harsher treatment based on race or other factors.

​@MiraMiMorena, excellent point. I wonder if these crimes had other crimes tied with them?

@@Brando23CommandoAnd ironically it is the police that lack accountability and who are NEVER held responsible for their actions. THIS MUST STOP. 🛑

@JeanEDeaux many have that issue, Yes. That doesn't mean that upholding the law is racist. Let's be real. You're completely disregarding personal accountability. They aren't arresting innocent people. Don't commit crimes if you don't want to be held accountable for said crimes.

Let's stop giving tax payer lawyers to criminals as well.

💯💯💯. Is ANYONE actually making an effort to get this rolling? ANYONE? When/how/who/where does it start? Because enough is enough already. 😡🤬😡 ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼✊🏻✊🏿

@@JeanEDeaux yes especially not allowing criminals to get tax payer appointed lawyers. Make them get their own lawyers

No more tax payer lawyers for criminals. Lets make it an even playing ground.

@@JG-yc2fr Not allowing free counsel? 🤔 So you want to punish potentially innocent people for simply being poor? No more innocent until proven guilty? That is in no way “even” or fair, as our laws state. And if they cannot afford counsel, then what?

Who would have guessed; being alive is dangerous

@@jamescaldwell6513 Especially in Phoenix! Also, I was being sarcastic. I'm not scared of the police or criminals.

My b, hard to tell with text

When people cry "laws are racist" just because they don't like being held accountable. It makes these stories that much harder to take seriously. Not that it can't be true, I just have serious doubts. I suspect people just don't like accountability.

@@Brando23Commando same here. Those stats of some people being arrested more than others should alarm those races that they are doing something wrong. Not blaming the system.

@mateuslima788 bring back accountability, whether it be personal or legal, and we'll all be better off.

@@Brando23CommandoThey’re literally reporting facts and cold hard data, but you’re choosing to reject it. Why? Because that’s what you FEEL. 🤦‍♂️ White Americans use marijuana more than Black Americans percentage wise. How do explain this?

@JeanEDeaux I'm not ignoring anything. They are picking up people who are committing crimes. Maybe those people tend yo commit more crimes as the evidence keeps suggesting. It's not that "laws are racist", it's that people think they shouldn't have consequences for breaking laws. That's an accountability issue, not a race issue. Let's try being honest and responsible. Accountability matters.

Or it could be you know selectively enforcing those laws on certain groups of people.

@@knightgunther5123💯💯💯

How did you come to that conclusion from this story? And who is “they”? 🙄

White people use marijuana more than Black Americans so try again. And that’s percentage wise AND numerically. Explain.

@@JeanEDeaux link please

Yes! And from this very story, they aren’t being arrested for it.

Regular citizens are arrested and held accountable every single day, as reported in this very story. The criminals who are NOT being held accountable are the police. Maybe once you or someone you love or care about finally experiences good ol’ fashioned “police justice” you will finally understand. Maybe. And it’s maybe, because some people are definitely “slow” and/or “special”.

Biggest racist ever 🥇 🏆 Congrats 🎈

It’s a WELL KNOWN FACT, a F A C T, that white people use marijuana more than ANY other groups. Percentage-wise AND numerically. And yes, even in Arizona. And yet…… How do you explain this? What “good excuses” can you conjure up here?

Become one and do it better

Yes. Especially if you’re a cop!
