NYC: World capital of marijuana arrests

NYC: World capital of marijuana arrests: "NYT: 'No city in the world arrests more of its citizens for using pot than New
York
, according to statistics compiled by Harry G. Levine, a Queens College
sociologist. Nearly nine out of ten people charged with violating the law are black or
Latino, although national surveys have shown that whites are the heaviest
users of pot. [Mayor] Bloomberg himself acknowledged in 2001 that he had used
it, and enjoyed it.'
