LOL, I love how they talk about the numbers. Black have a 1 in 3 change of going to prison... LOL....

American technology makes every endeavor more productive. Crooks are more likely to get caught in America. The question is what percentage of crooks are currently serving time.

If for example 75% of crooks are caught and serving time one could extrapolate the 4 in 10 black males are crooks. 2 in 35 white males are crooks... did I do that right????

1 in 3 change accross the race is an idiotic way of looking at the numbers.

Do you think habitual liars have a 1 in 3 or a 1 in 6 or a 1 in 17 chance of going to prison in their life time. That's a stupid metric. LOL... err no pun or insult intended.
