But they're not all criminals and they don't attack at random. If we assume 1 victim per 1 attacker, they are mutually exclusive and non-repeating then according to the statistics 1.44% of blacks are committing attacks on whites and 0.03% of whites are committing attacks on blacks. On a number basis BoW is 9% more than WoB, but attacks adjusted as a percentage of total attacking population is how you get to 45X. It's actually 47.5X, and it is legitimate.

If by "legitimate" you mean "meaningless", then sure.
The number you have arrived at is more a reflection of the demographics of the country than it is a reflection of which race is most violent toward the other.
You are unwittingly accounting for the demographics in your calculations twice. Like I said, it is easy to manipulate people with statistics.
