> so doing a ratio on absolute murder numbers is wild right?
Only that's not what I did. Read again - "per crime committed, blacks are less, not more, likely to be jailed".
What I compared was prison population, divided by number of homicides committed, for whites and blacks. It's strange how rarely this is done, because without it, it must look like the courts are fantastically biased against men, with how many more of them there are in jail than women.
