Since that "cursory nit" already showed that it was not a controlled comparison and that several variables were changing at once, what more do you expect? Do you understand the difference between a nitpick and a valid criticism? It has nothing to do with how long the post is; it has to do with whether it targets the meat of the argument being made.Well, the stats on Prince Georges County vs Montgomery County, all you ever did was a cursury nit, compared to the teardown you've been doing with other people's stats

Since a very small proportion of the total population commits most of the crime, this is not surprising. Think about that for a moment.MKSheppard wrote:Well, when the poverty rate is just 5% in montgomery county, and 7% in PG County, yet the difference in the crime rates is a whopping 200%.....Darth Wong wrote:Since that "cursory nit" already showed that it was not a controlled comparison.
