"Rethink" means you head to the web? That's not thinking.


Ohhh come on Doug! A little research at a US Gov't web site, presenting a
few facts and coming to a conclusion isn't thinking? My head felt all tingly
so I must have been thinking. No, I'm not drinking beer.

Doug, Let me try again and I'll try to keep it simple.

1) You asked if I would rethink my statement that only a small fraction of
incarcerated felons were in the Federal system. I said "certainly."

2) I gave two links that absolutely, unequivocally show that my statement is
correct. For the click impaired, I cut and pasted their summaries so they
wouldn't have to look at those confusing graphs.

3) I wrote a conclusion in my very own words! Now that's thinking! Please
post a coherent reply and show the world that you can think too.

See, we did this in school and the teacher would say "good thinking." Some
of youz guyz really crack me up. Oh, BTW I have a boating question, but it's
stopped raining so I'm out of here.

Kind regards - Zing

No, that's not what I asked. I asked you to rethink your comment about one
president or another being connected with incarceration rates. Your theory
is way too simple. Crime rates and subsequent results are the result of a
system, not a particular politician, although politicians will get in front
of microphones and choke their chickens all day long about how they're going
to fix things that their predecessors broke.
