Seriously, you would at least leave with some semblence of respect if you just demonstrated you had enough intelligence to understand when you are wrong when it's been clearly pointed out to you.
Why is it so hard for you to understand that ONE measure of aggravated assault in the US is comparable to ALL the measures of assault Canada uses (even "non-violent" assault, unless you think that assault without weapons that doesn't result in bodily harm is violent?)
seriously, now you're crossing the line from ignorant to unintelligent.
I tried to warn you politely before that you were mishandling the data, but since you persist in digging your heels in, there you go...my opinion is you lack comprehension skills.

Yes, that was an excellent explanation as to how you were well versed in statistical data and how much training you have. I can clearly see how I erred.
You could have perhaps presented evidence that a school dropout rate is unrelated to school violence. Or made a presentation in a manner other than
I think you're wrong so stop speaking. And I would not have gone and presented obviously flawed evidence to see how far you would run with it.
