I wonder if they left in the dog whistle to the right wing "FBI crime stats" trope, just to have extra solidarity with Ukraine

This makes me wonder, what's some good sourced rebuttals against the 13/50 argument? (Edit: A direct one, so to speak)

If you adjust crime stats with socioeconomic factors there is little racial disparity in crime rates within a certain economic bracket

Furthermore minorities also attract more police attention and get caught more hence higher arrest rates

Can you give me a scientific study on that, if it's fine?

even if racially enforced poverty weren't a factor it assumes as a given that police evenly and impartially enforce the law.
