There is nothing misleading or inaccurate in Ryan's statement, and it supports the argument being made. The per capita rate of homicides for both groups went down over the period being observed. The population grew for both groups. The number of homicides increased less than overall population growth. The underlying statistical relationship between the two groups is what matters. The per capita rate for aboriginal women fell less than for non-aboriginal women. They were already more likely to be murdered than non-aboriginal women, and that differential grew from 1980 to 2012.

What are you trying to argue?
