The most common, or most often arrested were marijuana, then heroin, crack, illegal prescription drugs, some Special-K (or Ketamine), Ecstasy (methylenedioxymethamphetamine). Too many to remember. Oh, and I was wrong. After thinking about it, I did remember where I was involved (not the arresting officer) in an arrest that involved two "blacks" and two "whites".
It came about after a call of a suspicious vehicle parked in front of a known (or common) actor's residence. Upon arrival with other units and subsequent investigation, it was learned that this white male was pimping his girlfriend out for sexual favors in lieu of payment from two male drug dealers (black males). During a probable cause search, illegal drugs (crack) was found and all parties were arrested on various different charges. But that's the only one I can think of. I worked in a small suburb just outside the city of Paterson, NJ (where I just happened to be born and raised).
I'm not disputing anyone's claim's here; just stating a fact. I became a LEO in the mid-late 80s. I grew up with friends who (for purposes of this topic) were black, hispanic, circassian and eastern european. I suppose, because of that, I never looked at things from a color standpoint, though early as a child, I remember hearing racial slurs of every kind coming from older people.
