Black firearm owners still represent a relatively small portion of the gun-owning population, with 9.3% of gun owners being (b)lack men and 5.4% (b)lack women.

Jeff Chandler: At 14.7%, black people are over-represented on the basis of their percentage of the population.

Incorrect!

If Blacks were proportionally represented, we would expect 14.7% of all gun-owners to be Black (both sexes).

I understand: Statistics can be daunting!
