Original Note:
The note claiming interracial crime is disproportionately more likely to involve Black people fails to adjust for age. In the US, the most common age among Black people is 27, compared to 58 for white people. Arrest rates for violent offenses peak at age 24. https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2019/07/30/most-common-age-among-us-racial-ethnic-groups/
