This is why they make you write papers in school. It's supposed to teach you how to construct a decent sentence.

It cracks me up that the writer is trying to connect the act of opposing the marijuana issue with the fact that certain groups of people are arrested on marijuana charges in a number that is disproportionate to that of whites. They have nothing to do with each other.  Oh well...I need to direct my energy elsewhere.
