What a coincidence! About 50% of drug arrests in America are cannabis related: ACLU
Insane. The good news is that data you shared was from 2010, and we've been in a steady decline since. Down to 40% in 2018 (Pew). And according to the NCDAS in 2020, "over the last decade, arrests made for the possession of marijuana have dropped by 58%."
What happened in 2019 that made the number tank so fast?
