The Sun : How to bend statistics to say what you like and avoid the truth

National Arts contest launched in ottawa to combat hate, confront Islamophobia


"Of them, 48% were motivated by hatred of a race or ethnicity,35 per cent were motivated by hatred of a religion, and 11 per cent were hate crimes targetting sexual orientation.

...and a part of the rise is due to an increase in incidents targeting Muslims."

Hmph. "A part of the rise" ... if there was one incident that would be sufficient to be "a part of the rise." That's good bending of statistics.

Suspiciously absent from this article (which you cannot copy and paste from , luckily I'm a touch typist) is any mention of exactly how many incidents of islamophobia occured. Or how many incidents of christiania-phobia (muslims targetting non muslims, as is REQUIRED by their holy book)

You want to stop the hatred against muslims ? How about you STOP KILLING the non-muslim ?

No, that would be too much to ask for , wouldn't it ?

Much as we love joking about Harper as the closet prime minister who hid in a closet when a muslim came calling with a machine gun , still, A MUSLIM CAME CALLING WITH A MACHINE GUN , AFTER THE PRIME MINISTER !!!!

Get a grip. You are not the wronged party here. You muslims are the ones doing all the killing.

USA is Watching You

Personal info of nearly 200 million U.S. voters sat exposed on a public server for 12 days

 

 Really ? And who would even have such a database in the first place ? 

Data was collated by Deep Root Analytics, which worked for the Republican National Committee last year

 

Wait ? A wack of politicians ? What exactly was in this database ? 

 "It included "names, dates of birth, home addresses, phone numbers, and voter registration details," plus best guesses at voter ethnicities and religious beliefs, according to..."

 

Wait... it knows who you are, where you live, and who you're likely to vote for ? And this is ALREADY in the hands of politicians like Ferguson Missouri Mayor James Knowles III , who terrorized every black he could into staying home in the last election (14% voter turn out in a town with a 30% white population) so he could get re-elected ? 

 

America truely is a dictatorship. 

Unbelievable that such a database even exists.  Never mind already being in the hands who will use it for the most harm.

 

'Please don't do this': Why Sony's plan to sanitize movies could be a 'slippery slope'

The entertainment company's home entertainment wing launched "clean versions" earlier this week, offering digital downloads of sanitized family-friendly versions for two dozen of their movies — including White House Down, Moneyball and Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Even the kids book series-turned-Jack Black film Goosebumps made the list.


My vote is for proper labling. You should have a list of things on the back of the box like ...
Contains Gore
Contains Sex
Contains Violence
Contains Drug Use
...etc etc etc 

And people can make up their own minds. 
Let them sell "clean versions" and "Dirty Versions" and "Full versions" all they like. 

Just properly label it.
