I'm not sure where exactly your numbers came from for the trans percentage, but if we use the smaller percentage of .01% and the 2014 U.S. population of 318.9 million, that comes out to 31,890 trans people, nowhere near 3.8 million. That would change the murder rate to a 0.00072% chance, roughly 48 times the murder rate of white people from the numbers you gave. If you use the [i]much[/i] higher number, trans people still have about 1.5 times the murder rate. This should also require citations if you're going to claim it as facts and make such sweeping statements about the murders.

  • Before you start checking math you should learn it. 0.01x319,000,000=3,190,000, 23\3,190,000=0.00000721. I transpose a number wrong. You suck at math. My figures still stand. Buy a calculator.

    Multiplying something by 0.01 is equivalent to saying it is 1%. You done fvcked up boy. Edit - you should learn to check your calculations before you start being a smart ass.

  • Lol. Your post said 0.01%. I'm no rocket scientist, but I can say with pretty good certainty that 0.01% is not the same as 1%, which is what multiplying by 0.01 would be. I'd suggest taking a look at your own math skills, specifically how percentages work.
