No, I'm an expert in recognizing when someone has nothing better to bring to an argument than bad statistics and a silly ad hominem. Best of luck, my friend. I'm sure you're better at OMM than you are at debate, which will serve you well in your chosen career.
Haha. Right. Okay Navy Boy - please good sir, educate this poor DO heathen. Tell me what's the proper way to compare crime between the City of Brotherly Love and... uh, Jackson. I want reasons and citations, no, I need reasons and citations. I
crave your hard facts all over my forum. After all, I'm told that MDs are always on the ball when it comes to evidence.
While we're at it, I also need to you show me that, historically, all firearm-related crimes from Jackson are picked up by the local media. You could strengthen your argument by giving a run-down on how crime reporting differs by region and by population size. Prove, to all of us, that the news from the area would definitely pick up the crime the OP refers to. Prove to us that the shooting didn't happen.
You know what? How about this - tell me why the existence of the shooting even matters in regards to your main issue.
Quote: "That's what's rubbing some the wrong way; to use a made up story to launch into a screed with the other problems you pointed out." Does that mean that you'd be perfectly happy with the OP if his story was true?
By the way, I love it when you get angry. SDN just hasn't been as fun since Etzio got banned, but I think you've got potential.
P.S. I was going to try and work an OMM joke into there but I'm not that great of a writer. Sorry.
