Yes, and the statistics phd reassessed after I pointed out that there were actually peer reviewed studies so we didn’t have to rely on the back of the envelope calculations by pro-publica. I don’t know if you knew this but just posted this anyway or you were so eager to take a stab at me that you didn’t look further.
"Well, I guess I should say that after the two studies, the calculation didn’t need to be made. It was fine to throw numbers around and stab in the dark before we had any real facts.
Yes, there is a difference if you ignore all other variables. Hell you don’t need to cherry pick the data to see statistically significant differences. The confidence interval is even better when you look at ALL the data. Peer reviewed studies saw these differences and they say that the difference is basically illusory. When comparing like to like, there is no difference between blacks and whites."
