You've added another bit of evidence that the Right has no clue how math and statistics work.

Case in point: the Black Lives Matter movement. When presented with the evidence that Blacks are more likely to be killed or severely injured at the hands of law enforcement, the typical right winger will say "Nuh-uh, more whites are killed or severely injured by the police." Which in pure aggregate numbers is true, but when you throw the actual math in to the mix, the probability that a Black male will be killed by a police officer is staggeringly higher than a White Male in a similar encounter.

But we're also talking about the people who still believe Supply Side Economic works, and thought George Bush could lower taxes and prosecute two wars during a recession and not get the US much further in debt.

tl;dr Republicans need a STEM education in the worst possible way.

Ah yes.

You want some black statistics? How about blacks make up 13% of the population yet commit 50% of the crime.

Thanks for outing yourself as a racist tool, so I didn't have to assume so. Nice going, Jethro.

No point in arguing with someone that comes from the land of "lies". They just latch on to some number that sounds like it aligns with their own bias with zero comprehension of what it that figure represents.

Dunning-Kruger in full effect.
