Picture a Flat-Earther saying that to an astronaut. If you can do that much you may understand why I, like the astronaut, am unmoved by such a statement. There was nothing to argue---the data is clear. |
False equivalency. The shape of the earth is based on various inputs of collaborating data, most of which is accumulated through rigourous induction. The argument for gun control is purely deductive (almost every study finds no significant correlation between gun ownership and homicide rate.) It is telling that the sample sizes must be ever narrowed until the desired hypothesis is met. This is obviously an example of confirmation bias, and quite honestly unscientific/intellectually dishonest. Nevertheless if you assert it enough maybe you will convince people. Keep at it, comrade! It is the socialist way isn't it? Disarm populations so that you can send them to the gulags.
