RE: The NISMART ‘Study’
Yeah. I’m always ‘impressed’ with ‘household surveys’ over actual police reports. /sarcasm
Oh. But they DID ask some question of police and sheriff departments. In 400—count em—counties. Cherry picking the counties too, from the overview document.
This looks to be a CLASSIC example of that truism
Figures don’t lie but liars figure
I’m not surprised that ddc bought into it. As I informed penny (above) ddc doesn’t seem to care much for reality or logic. Let alone REAL sadistics….as we called it in some of the higher-level staff-puke training programs I attended.
Thanks for the heads-up.
