I never said it would, but it does explain part of it, and especially the length, which acts as a multiplier. Hard to say what the "true" frequencies are. I'm pretty sure you'd still have more men committing crimes, but probably not as many if they'd get similar treatments. And you'd probably see shorter sentences, and fewer jail sentences, if there was no sentencing gap. I have no idea what the "true" numbers would be though.
- UncleOxidant 4y agoI just looked up mass-shooting stats in the US (data going back to 1966) and 98% have been committed by men - no sentencing bias there.
- luckylion 4y agoI see you have no actual interest in the discussion and just want confirmation of your beliefs. I'm sure you'll find plenty in the depth of the internet. Good luck, and have a great day!
- anonporridge 4y agoMass shootings are a statistically insignificant portion of all violent crime. They're just emotionally visceral and newsworthy, which is why we think it's a bigger problem than it is in reality.
- tsol 4y agoWhen women are statistically fewer of the high achieving people in society we say it must be because of socialization, because women and men are equal. How is it that this is because men are simply violent? So are men just women with an added propensity for violence?
