There certainly are bullshit statistics but with your current lack of understanding I'm afraid you're not qualified to call them that other than if you're just repeating someone else.  But again, if you're repeating without having properly understood the reason something may be bullshit then you're leaving yourself open to questioning or criticism that you're unable to defend.

Claiming I don't understand it doesn't make me wrong but unfortunately for you I understand it far more than I like you don't even need to look anything up specific to find what I'm talking about but just look at almost every statistics quoted by most political or religious ideologies out there. Not only that you even have magazines like New Scientist calling them out and even pointing out terribly bad science people used in order to sell chemical products we use every day.

Anyway, I've decided I'm not going to be that bothered about people who have already made there minds up on me on the spot because I know I'm correct regardless, on the internet I've noticed a remarkable thing where people tend to argue less and less about the actual subject and more about the personality of the person behind the computer they've made up in their heads. The gun thing was just an example I thought some people here would be able to relate to easily but I didn't think it would so easily cause people to fly off the handle lol Tongue

Kind of reminds me of political debates actually maybe that's where everyone gets it from O_O

Lethn, I thought I'd point out that I agree with you.

I was going to just read the thread and not comment, but to do so would imply I don't care. Haters gonna hate and try to take away our Constitutional liberties. I'm with you: we should not compare the statistics quoted for the UK directly to the statistics for the US. Apples and oranges.

Ugh, I usually have liked TheYoungTurks, but this coverage seems unfair and misinformed.  Was also impressed with the father for graciously acknowledging the response that he practically invited from them.

Seconded on all points. I don't think they were aware that it was edited at the time, young turks are usually pretty fair in their coverage.

i think it was quite obvious if cenk watched the video that it was edited; the guy talks; then the guys position changes so you can see the footage was cut; at that point the audience talks

did Cenk apologize? he criticizes other people editing their clips oftenly
