LIES, DAMNED LIES AND …… Recently, I read that a person in the US is 12,000 times more likely to be shot by a fellow American than a terrorist. This nugget of information was based on statistics which showed that between 2005 and 2015 there were 24 deaths attributed to Islamic terrorism against the 301,797 gun deaths. Wow, I thought, that just goes to show. But then the year 2001 came to mind, when almost 3,000 Americans were killed and more than 6,000 wounded, in a single day.
Funny thing statistics, you can make them say whatever you want them to.
