richwwtk Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 I know the 'Society Of Cowards' thread has been locked, but I think this may have been a useful addition to the debate. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-19592372 Just goes to show that there is more than one viewpoint to everything and it's not necessarily right to blame certain groups of people for anything bad you see.

Davros Posted July 28, 2014 Report Share Posted July 28, 2014 There is no viewpoint on those numbers they are very strait and easy to interprate accurately sadly some people choose to slur certain groups knowing full well that the evidence for their assertion is both evidentially and mathematically flawed. When I proved this to certain people they changed their viewpoint that stats are nonsense and that they would rather use anecdotal evidence which seemed to be YouTube videos of right wing European politicians talking about the stats... If you say it enough it must be true right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
