    Wow! This is like saying that if someone owns an axe, they are more likely to be a serial killer. If they also have rolls of black garbage bags, then its even more likely …

      That’s such a straw man. You would have no trouble saying that if someone doesn’t have an axe they are less likely to be an axe murderer

        Sorry - what do you mean?

        The fact that someone owns an axe and garbage bags, does nothing to their likelihood of them being a murder, just like being white and/or a male has nothing to do with the “risk of unearned confidence”.
