I don't see why being in a minority means accepting a higher chance of being confused by a criminal. This is how cycles of oppression propagate.

  Those aren't equivalent unless humans are out of the loop entirely, which they shouldn't be in any area of law.

    But then the humans can't be "color blind". They must explicitly go out of their way to undo the effects of the rest of the system by, E.g. Displaying extra care when dealing with a black suspect.

      So, the usual, then?

  Your chance of getting confused BY a criminal is probably more connected to your ability to comprehend and communicate. Perhaps you not understand the metaphor. Developing takes time and money to produce accuracy. You're advocating greater per-capita investment for an ethnic group. That's racial discrimination. You are advocating racism. It should come as no surprise that there's a difference. It is therefore suspect that they avoid mentioning the magnitude of the difference; it must not support their case otherwise they would highlight it. Critical reading, logic, and reason will help protect you from this type of manipulation and inadvertent racism.
