Reply to comment by Proof-Variation7005 in Providence City Council looks to ban cannabis use in parks by GhostOpera406
Huh, well, this prolly won't be enforced very well either. Everybody wins!

Except the homeless people and people of color who will be the ones that get the brunt of that enforcement. I don’t think there’s been any follow up on how much or little they’ve enforced it in parks or the large section of downtown that banned smoking so maybe cops just haven’t done anything with it. But I’d bet good money that the majority of tickets probably aren’t students, tourists and white collar workers.

“Broken windows” policing is inherently racist.
