The percentage of society those minorities make up?
Shouldn't the correct measure be relative to how criminal they are?
Assuming that some races aren't inherently more criminal than others, disproportionate differences in crime rates would still indicate systemic problems.
No they wouldn’t. They COULD indicate systemic problems but it is just as likely they indicate cultural problems. It’s incorrect to just assume it’s “the system” and not helpful to anyone.
Cultures don't exist in a vacuum. Within a society, a given group's culture is influenced by the situations that group experiences.
Besides, there's already evidence that systemic issues like poverty impact crime rates.
Sure they impact it, but are they the cause? Are they the entire story? Are cultural differences to just be ignored?
If your measure of criminality is determined by the police that should work super good.
