re: Harvard graduate walks out of Merrick Garland's commencement address
Posted by DiscountedCashFlow on 6/2/22 at 11:12 am
[quote]You're trying to come off as so smart, but a quick look at Harvard Psychology's website did not show any terminal Master's programs. So, just like the PhD program at LSU you get your Master's degree along the way to pursuing your PhD[/quote]
That's because she did it from the extension sch...

Because she's a masters graduate, not a Harvard undergrad graduate.
The opportunities available to undergraduates and the business school are often not extended to masters students at Harvard I think because employers know that the undergrad and bu...

Lmao, she's a masters student.
Harvard's masters programs are really not that prestigious or selective.
People go for the undergraduate (the college) or the professional schools (Law, Business, Medicine).
My friend who went there says some o...

[quote]You can’t be this ignorant. You’ve peppered this thread and others with all sorts of statistics you give no sources for, and the first study you actually provide a link to has as its foundation a belief that more than 17% of homicides are committed with guns purchased within 5 days (or one we...

[quote]Let’s address the root causes of murder and stop going the anti-gun route as the only option. And while we’re at it address the reason that the large majority of killings are done in inner cities where guns are obtained no matter the gun laws. And not by AR or AK, but by handguns.

Dude, I'm doing it so it appears MORE generous for the US, not worse.
If we include gang mass shootings, the US has had over 200 mass shootings this past year alone.
That's more than most Western countries ...

[quote]Why wouldnt you want the real numbers to get to the crux of the problem? Why exclude certain groups?[/quote]
Because you guys always try and deflect with 'it's mostly gang crime' when people bring up the total figures up.
I wanted to avoid all that and get to the cruz of the problem wh...

No, it wouldn't.
I was excluding them to be able to compare the US to other countries because if I didn't, you guys would be the first to say 'gang crime' accounts for those homicides.
When I include gang crimes, the number of mass shootings ...

[quote]So you could shoot and injure 20 people and not kill anyone and that doesnt count? Why are gang related shootings excluded? Is this defined according to you, reserch, fbi, etc?[/quote]
Because it would massively increase the figures for the US.

[quote]That would imply that substantially more than 17% of murders (because the waiting period would not be 100% effective) are committed with guns that a waiting period pertains to, that is a recently purchased firearm. Correct?

It's saying the opposite.
83% of homicides are commi...
