So a Gallup poll that doesn't ask about violent crime is used as evidence that people are misguided about violent crime? How does that work?

  I maintain my position that "the content is horseshit" should be added to the list of reasons to flag a submission. Lot of poorly-researched nonsense stays on the front page far too long.

    I flag these articles but no one cares. People upvote based on politics, and downvote permissions are restricted.

      > I flag these articles but no one cares. Not sure what you mean--it seems like most articles that touch on politics get flagged (as this one did). Just like with upvoters, it is impossible to know whether those who flagged it did so because of politics or because they thought the article was of poor quality.

    That is exactly my main criteria for flagging articles.
