Gun Control & RKBA

beevul: So what? If, IF your goal is to tally those who did versus those who didn't, that's the applicable math

You above unwittingly agree that your signature line is applicable for one year only, since you are disregarding the average yearly gun owner total, which is the valid way to do this.

Your signature line is falsely contending that 99.9% of ALL living gun owners in a drop-back period, do not shoot or kill anyone; written as it is, that's what you are contending: 99.9 percent of gun owners do not shoot or kill anyone. Focus on the .1 percent who misuse guns, and leave the rest of us who don't, and our guns, the hell alone. Member of the 99.9 percent.

You cannot validly claim that is true over time, just because it is approximately true for one year.

beevul: Its not MY contention, jimmy, its YOURS:

You lie again. My table below clearly says 'gun owners', not 'gun owners who did not shoot/kill'. You are actually doing nothing whatsoever with your junk science, just reducing a fraction from larger amounts over 5 years, rather than one year, ergo the stat will remain the same.

80,000,000 gun owners - 2000 ------ 80,000 shootings & gundeaths (0.1% x gunowners)
81,000,000 ..... " ........ - 2001 ------ 81,000 ..... "
82,000,000 ..... " ........ - 2002 ------ 82,000 ..... "
83,000,000 ..... " ........ - 2003 ------ 83,000 ..... "
84,000,000 ..... " ........ - 2004 ------ 84,000 ..... "
........................................ total = 410,000

After 5 years time in the hypothetical, there were actually 410,000 shootings/killing by gun owners, along with approx. 100 million ACTUAL gun owners in existence over that time period.

beevul: You wrote that. You came up with the hypothetical numbers. I just finished your math is all

You botched the statistics & probability quiz, is all.

I contended: You find the shooting/kill percentage of existing plus dead or gone gun owners in America after 5 years, using your 0.1% claim. 410 thousand is 0.41% of 100 million, rough estimate.

beevul: That's funny, the calculator says its .1 percent. Your 'rough estimate' is off by a factor of 4.

Try it again, you messed up. I'll help. First, remember 0.41% = 0.0041 scalar;
Next, enter 0.0041 in the entry box, then click on X (for multiply), then enter 100,000,000 in the box, and see what the answer is.
