Impossible to "prove" anything if the only data you have is what
someone might tell a pollster on the phone GIGO.

You are taking a CDC data set and trying to use it to justify a study
done with garbage data generated by a bunch of grad students trying to
bull**** a professor into a degree

Got it, you have nothing to base your position on that the data is
wrong, you just don't like the data.

The data does not reflect reality.
They sold almost 17 million new guns last year and your data says gun
ownership has gone down.
Yes, I don't like the data

You don't like it, but that doesn't make it wrong.

You wishing it was so doesn't make it right either.


I've asked before, if it's wrong, that's fine, prove to me that it is,
and I'll believe it.


Wouldn't it make more sense to prove yours is correct? Or, is it correct because you found it on the
internet.


No, it wouldn't.
