Something about lies and statistics

Very long article below but interesting. I suspect many of the statistics that get tossed around regularly have always been false.

But if that's your belief, why are you trusting these statistics?

They're all flawed = They're all flawed


I'd personally like to stick to the Australian model.

oh, this article is BS... it's using statistics, that you don't trust, to disavow statistics that YOU DON"T TRUST...  

"In raw numbers, the U.S. still made the Top 10 on Lott’s list, but barely. Leading the pack is India, followed by Iraq, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Algeria, Columbia, Nigeria, and the Philippines leading us. (Sudan has the dubious distinction of coming in 10th.) "

notice how NONE of those countries are developed WESTERN cultures???  so, it's okay, we are still among the top ten in what well, someone might have maybe characterized as "sh!thole" countries, maybe,....  

this just proves that republicans and conservatives DON'T ACTUALLY LISTEN.  everytime a democrat or liberal has compared our mass shootings IT HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO OTHER WESTERN DEVELOPED COUNTRIES.  

GEEEZUS F'ING CHRIST!  

pay attention, for once to what PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY SAYING, not the spin you want to put on it, you partisan HACK.

Easy there Lost.....

Just so I'm clear on the rules, there are times when I have to judge these '$hithole' countries on a curve, like in this gun debate. They are not 'western' nations so we let a few mass killings slide..... and other times when judging them on a curve is a strict no-no.

And no, every time a Democrat or Liberal has compared mass shootings, it has not been to other developed nations. That was the whole point of the article. Did you read it?
