Black women in San Fran arrested at a disproportionate rate
-
Maybe black women are committing more crime? That can't possibly be the problem.

That much more? Not saying it is all "racism/prejudice/etc", but I imagine that plays a part.

That's right Woody, you're "imagining" it.

San Francisco is not what I would call a spot where the cops were heavy handed.

But 13.4 times higher? Fuck

The cops were letting gay dudes walk around with their dicks out at the pier when I was there. I think you have to be a real helmet head to get yourself arrested in San Fran.
I would be interested to see if Asians in San Fran were arrested at a much lower rate than whites there.

Got my answer.

Asians represent a third of the population but only 3% of those arrested. Whites represented half of the population and 39% of those arrested.
Are Asians getting preferential treatment?

Those numbers from the article you posted actually reflect the percent resisting arrest, not the arrest rates overall.
You could probably make a strong distinction across financial backgrounds, and how that works into race. Again, I don't think it is all some sort of prejudice, but it can't help.

So why would that be a factor?

In the article they even mention that arrests are much higher for black women as it pertains to narcotics and weapons charges. Crimes with evidence.
I think the cops are not acting heavy handed. The better question is why are black women getting themselves arrested so much?
