Lying liars and the lies they tell.  They print these huge statistics.....then I get into the article and see that the author didn't rule out other assumptions.......then a guns rights person speaks the truth......then the author says a bunch of BS about not being able to do better research.......then it comes out the he is on O'bama's gun violence board.......then he talks about his very imperfect research being scientifically accurate.

 

Of course, CNN only prints titles that are ingenuous.  Finally, they have "comments" turned off so no one can disagree with their flawed research and bad behavior.

The numbers actually went down over that period because I stopped eating shellfish.  Its easy to prove… I stopped eating them, and the numbers went down.

I have figured out a long time back that most times lies make news and bigger lies make more news and any statistics that come from anywhere in the New England Area will always make news because it is primarily all Blue up there and we all know that Blue states lie about almost everything they are against to make sure it makes the news. I love the ad New York is running where they are promising any company that will open in New York will be tax free for 10 years. Zero taxes of any kind for 10 years and then they add that they have even dropped the personal income tax rates. Why would any company want to open up in a state that has a state income tax to begin with????? I have checked recently to see just how many new companies have opened up in New York since the promotion began. I could not find one company listed as new to New York or recently opened there. That should tell New York something along with all the companies that packed or are packing their bags to leave for better locations in other states..............jmho

I might be able to use my student account to get a look at this report without having to pay for a copy  If I can, I'll give it a look see and let you guys know if the methodology passes the sniff test.

I have seen these and they make me shake my head.  Who'd go there?   They cannot be running these ads at the hope businesses will move there.  What is the angle?

Business don't make decisions because some saw a TV commercial, certainly not those commercials.

 

Geez if NY is a greener pasture...?

New York is so out of touch they probably believe their own BS.
