S1 E10 - Meteorites, Marbles and Math - The Misused Statistics of Gun Control

Send us Fan MailThe mainstream media and politicians combined with the wealthy gun-ban lobby, tells us over and over how bad it is in the United States, compared to other countries.  A favorite statistic is the relative number of "gun" deaths compared to "certain" countries.  Is this a valid point?  Is it a cause for concern or just political gambit?  Maybe it's somewhere in between.  Why not analyze "all" deaths in all countries?  Why not treat suicides and gang violence separately?On a given day the mainstream media might report firearm deaths per capita, on another day it's deaths overall.  They change the story to fit the agenda.   Their agenda is always at the forefront, the only consistency is their insistence on more gun laws.  Numbers don't lie, but people can, and deciphering the lie is the job of The Tenth Man.Commentary on trending issues brought to you with a moderate perspective.
