On the flipside, do you think the fact that 4% of the population represents 22% of the prison population to be a good thing?


It's neither a good thing or a bad thing. It just is.

Are you sure the demographics don't significantly change the percentages? I have not done the math myself.

Depends on how you want to bend the stats. If you eliminate all other races, the US incarcerates 450 white men per 100,000. That alone keeps us in first place.
