I mean, I agree, but why be inaccurate with this statement?
> significant minority of voters polling in support of the view
We know that it’s a majority from the article:
> A Morning Consult poll showed 58% of Americans either strongly or somewhat supported the idea of “calling in the U.S. military to supplement city police forces.”
Is it because of the same fear that the article is describing in the press?
- humanrebar 6y agoI wrote "at least a significant minority", which includes majority views. I was casting a wider net since I think minority views should be discussed, if for no other reason than they should be understood. Disagreeing with someone without even understanding their views is ignorant. Part of the benefit of current protests is catching people up on facts who were previously disengaged.
- jtbayly 6y agoI understand now, but I think the natural reading of that phrase is that it refers to a minority of some sort.
