An excellent debunking of the Left’s favorite urban myths (though I still believe that marriage is in deep, deep trouble).

Whites DO the US majority of mass shootings, since they are the majority in population , but is it a big difference statistically ?

Ha! Who even pays attention to their wives on super bowl Sunday?

Just for that, you will be fetching your own beer and refilling your own chip and dip tray.

The liberals who keep pointing to this made-up statistic invariably favor "assisted suicide"

The source of much of this pabulum is Johns Hopkins University, which has been running a statistically-based "throwdown quote"/"pull quote" fabrication shop for 25 years.

For a long time, and possibly even now, Johns Hopkins had a consulting contract to Handgun Control, which is now the Brady Campaign, to gin up zingy one-liners for use in "debates" which would lead, under the right President, to universal firearm confiscation.

If we were to dissect that arrangement, no doubt (says I) we should find a convicted Fabian Socialist or Communist-trained agitprop wordsmith working on a grant from some Soros-funded "Org", hammering out phony correlations and statistical malaprops to keep the checks coming and make the world safe for Socialism.
