Stefan and FDR,
Question about the statistics on race vs crime: why are crime rate statistics not normalized against racial representation demographic within the United States?
Pertains to data starting at 6:30 > https://youtu.be/TVBJ5m3sGfk?t=6m30s
If the percentage is not normalized to match the racial proportions within the United States, then these figures are accurate, but they undermine your point slightly.
Example: U.S. Violent Crime Rates by Race (2014)
Incidents per 100K directly from the video:
Black: 1047
Hispanic: 518
White: 219
Asian: 90
US Demographics per http://quickfacts.census.gov/qfd/states/00000.html
Black: 13.2%
Hispanic: 17.4%
White: 62.1%
Asian: 5.4%
Other: 1.9%
Percentage of total crime per race in the U.S. normalized against racial representation demographic (without Other)
Black: 37.4%
Hispanic: 24.4%
White: 36.9%
Asian: 1.3%
Note: after I worked out the example, I realized these figures were not that insightful, but it's interesting to see the percentage when compared to the demographics.
V/R,
William
