@thegerg:
"You're coming to conclusions by assuming a relationship exists between two things"
The ralationship you're talking about here was 1) my beliefs and 2) murder rates, my belief/conclusion being, a person being influenced by having a gun, and carrying a gun would lead to, more shootings and deaths, which would effect murder rate.
We can agree that that was the relationship you were on about because you said so soo many times.
So you said,
"You're coming to conclusions by assuming a relationship exists between two things"
I said in reply
"It does exist just not on the large scale I thought it would, you said yourself",
(Quoting thegerg)
"I do believe they can be a threat if they are apt to reach for their gun at the smallest provocation."
"I believe that too. I feel that the number of people that would do that, though, is so small that it doesn't do us much good to talk about them. Someone that would do such a thing needs to see a doctor".
You then replied,
"What you've quoted has nothing to do with the relationship I'm talking about. Try to pay attention"
So your belief is that there is a small number of people that would use a gun irresponsibly, I believed there would be a larger number of people that would behave like this, till I found evidence that said otherwise.
It's clear to see that what I quoted you on had everything to do with the relationship you was talking about.
