If correlation is enough, the rise in gun deaths aligns with gains made by right wing, populist Democrats over the same period.

We could also recognize that simple correlation isn't an awesome decision-making tool, repent and do better.
- hello_computer 2y agoi think everyone who made it to adulthood understands the difference between causation and correlation, yet awful people like yourself feel the need to lecture us on it--if only as a bludgeon--to punish us for putting into words what we have seen with our own lying eyes. import india & the middle east, become more like india & the middle east. one only needs to line the mugshots up on a wall to verify, but that is now forbidden. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/swedish-police-are-not-allowed-to-give-descriptions-of-alleged-criminals-so-as-not-to-sound-racist-a6810311.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/swedish-poli...
- K0balt 2y agoThe demographics of the apprehended offenders would lead one to believe that the problem may have its roots in displaced persons, who often suffer from social and economic pressures that lead to increased crime. Of course this only includes -apprehended- people, so we might also consider that perhaps non-displaced persons are more successful at evading identification, or perhaps that police mainly prosecute crimes committed by displaced populations. But nah, really, it’s more a factor of importing cultures that are less oriented toward civic behaviour because they see their hosts as “others”, as they are also seen, and are under extreme socioeconomic pressure. You will typically see a sharp increase in crime wherever large volumes of displaced persons flow. It’s a natural consequence of human, cultural, social, and economic factors. It has nothing to do with race.
