Here's a better analogy to the interpretation of the statistics:

If the premise is that if there are proportionally more blacks in prison than in the country's population, therefore blacks are more criminal by nature,...

...look at a parallel population...

The military.

Look at what percentage in the military are black vs white...blacks are also over represented in the armed forces.

Does that mean that blacks are also genetically more patriotic than whites?

Braver than whites?

laugh

The statistics don't lie...but they don't always tell the truth either.

There's Liars, DAMNED LIARS, and statisticians.
