Leftists can fuck up a wet dream.

I dropped my 40 year old subscription in 1995, after John Rennie was appointed Editor in Chief (in 1994). He totally destroyed a good magazine.
 

as a magazine, I was a subscriber but quit

these days the title is an oxymoron

little science and more like South American

"Three percent of the population now owns half of the country’s firearms, says a recent, definitive study from the Injury Control Research Center at Harvard University."



Woo-hoo - the 3 percenters!!! I think that's worthy of a tat or patch!

Very true. What are they going to fuck up next? The Nobel Prize?

Then what was their purpose in publishing it?

If any one of the idiots who decided to publish that crap has any real scientific background they need to get their tuition money back.

The scientific community has been babbling this shit for decades, and the harsher facts of life prove them all to either be too stupid to breath on their own, or simply have an ulterior motive.

Maybe they never had to take a course in statistics, and how to prove the statistics are actually true.

In any case, I will not bother to ever read anything printed by that trashy rag.

Yup. Like most here, we all fit his exact description.

I am a misanthrope - just to give him one point.

Irish/Canadian with 1/8th British blood, left-handed, red-headed, multiple degree-holding polyglot and Jewish shooter and all-round bon oeuf. I must have fallen between his punctuation.

I think 3% of the population owns more than half of the publications, lame media, and baseless liberal infotainment. IMO They are infinitely more dangerous.
