I thought Matt Levine's daily had a good take:

"The deep message is that if you define criminality based on your negative perception of some disliked group, then your criminals are going to look like that group. If you assume that rural white people with guns are hunters and urban minorities with guns are gang members, then your predictive policing efforts will look for guns in cities rather than forests. If you assume that Wall Street is an industry whose business model is fraud, then your predictive policing efforts will look for fraud in midtown Manhattan. In both cases, it is at least plausible that the group perception leads to the definition of criminality, rather than the reverse. What makes you a criminal is not doing a certain objectively defined sort of act; it's being a certain sort of person."
