Imagine blue people get ignored when storming a capitol building while brandishing guns and threatening govt employees and screaming at cops. At the same time, green people get the shit beaten out of them and sent to jail for jaywalking. Crime statistics would suggest green people are more prone to crime. But in reality blue people get a pass while green people get the opposite. <cite>DanSmithK7 posted [p:938710414] in are crime ...

I think what you're saying is actually an example where the statistics are racist, not just being employed in racist ways Ehh, where the law is racist, not the statistics reflecting the law. I feel like the number one way these types of information are used in racist ways is by ignoring context, such as racist law procedures, and making conclusions about the population they describe. Kinda semantics at this point though, we're all on the same page here. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] <cite>COVxy posted [p:938711205] in are crime ...
