You realize these aren't comparable, right? Except, in the broadest sense, of a famous person doing something illegal?

Dogfighting/cruelty to animals = felony.

Weed does not = felony in some states. Plus, the criminal justice process hasn't started at all in this.

That's not even getting into weighing the moral/social outrage of one crime (dogfighting and the resulting cruelty to animals) against another.

If you want to give an example of racial disparities in sentencing for crime, you've got about a million better examples than this.
