Drich here is a chart of Ferguson police stats.

Yes, there are more arrests made of black people, but it's only because more black people are stopped. (At least of contraband searches)
White people actually have a higher rate of being being found with contraband but they have a lower rate of arrests. Which makes sense considering that only 47 white people were stopped compared to the over 500 black people who were stopped.
