Thanks for the graphs proving what I say is true--school violence has increased since the 50s and 60s, but some insisted I was wrong.

You only see what you want to see and argue false conclusions. Gun violence and mass shootings have substantially grown since the 80s and are currently at unacceptable levels, 3-5 mass shootings per month.

Sure, it is always somehow different when a Democrat does what a Republican does.

There you go again

Damn, got to hand it to you once again, you just keep proving my point for me. Awesome!
I hope soon you will realize I have been pointing out the increases--not denying them! Or not, it is nice to see how no one seems to be arguing when YOU say violence has increased.

Why are you working so hard to prove me right about your obtuseness?

Aww, bless your heart.

Let me know if someone is forcing you to read.

Thanks!

Oh, I forget, all you want to do is yak on about MAGA, Trump, etc. Have fun with the other members of that little circle.

Talking about the movement to eradicate our Democratic Republic, by placing a psychopathic, incompetent, known criminal and wanna be mob boss at the top of our government, who is proceeding to fill every appointable position with unqualified, but fawning syncopate yes-minions, is completely a waste of time discussing it with you, agreed.

But pointing out blatant politically motivated equivalence arguments is of value to the group and I’ll continue to do so.

Thanks!

Wish you would try. I still have some hope for you.

You are disingenuous arguing trends as if the unprecedented gun violence problem in this country is solved which is simply not the case.

I'll try once more, just for you.

ELI5: Why is it obtuse to ask/expect claimants to support their claims with evidence?

Talking about the movement to eradicate our Democratic Republic,

Silly hyperbole. Did you not learn such tactics aren't working with the majority of Americans? Running around shouting about Trump and pretending democracy is about to end is childish.
I don't like Trump, and didn't vote for him, but I refuse to spend my days griping and whining because he won the election.
Say, you aren't one of the idiots going around claiming Trump isn't your President, are you?

you can "TRY" all the obtuseness you want to exhibit here.

That graph starts in 1982... so it does not show what you think it does

QUOTE ME DOING WHAT YOU CLAIM.
I defy you to do so.
What trend have I argued OTHER than saying violence is increasing?

Only a misinformed or ill-informed person would even THINK that violence in schools was worse in the years before the 80's.

That it started in the 50s when all the data clearly show a steep rise from mid 80s until now.... Again you are not being honest.

 

[Texan1211]

Okay, I think the graph shows an increase in violence, but now it doesn't because you say so?
