Statistics can mean different things to different people....
Pretty similar until you compare the following:
Democrat Conclusion: Cold weather from global warming causes murder.
TOPICS: Government; History; Politics; Society
KEYWORDS: banglist; chicago; co2; demagogicparty; globalwarminghoax; houston; statistics
Culture is the primary determinant of the homicide rate. Guns are almost irrelevant, in the large picture. Of course, they can make a difference individually.

Must be that extra 3% population Chicago has.
To: marktwain
In about 400 years Chicago will have murdered enough to equalize the population.
You would think see BS and others would be all over this kind of factual story.
Think again.
