Most numberwangs aren't that accurate. Remember the 13%/50% meme is closer to 6% or 8% after you take into consideration both age and sex [young male blacks] but at this point 13/50 is here to stay despite... it being inaccurate.
I mean, the reason it "stays" is because it's a meme and would be much harder to spread "hate facts" if it were a live number that keeps changing. What does 13/50 signify? Disproportionate results; as long as the underlying truth doesn't change, the specific ratio doesn't matter.

All very fair points.
13/50 is extra funny because it's the flag of the United States. 13 stripes, 50 stars.
Thing is black women are at least as violent as white men, if not moreso. So it's a mistake to focus entirely on young black men.
