[quote=jstoesz]Scardey, I think you are falling for the “all else equal” fallacy.
If all else between the two men is identical but the color of their skin. Meaning they have the same clothing, mannerisms, facial expressions, etc. I doubt many would judge the runners differently.
Now the questions is are some of those other characteristics fair to judge on. Seems to me, sometimes yes, sometimes no. Hows that for muddying the waters.[/quote]
I’m willing to bet the vast majority of people, and cops, are going to say it is statistically more likely that the black guy is running as fast as he can for a bad reason than the white guy and therefore more reasonable to stop him, all other factors being identical and that the white guys trying to get to his max heart rate.
