@@sethbishop3306 It's just a funny meme because in the debate between Vincent and Destiny on Jesse's show, Vincent brought that binder and made Destiny really uncomfortable because he didn't realize they were supposed to do shit like that. Also, his binder has the stupid cherry-picked data in it with graphs HE made (he literally cut the homicide rate graph of Australia right before the homicide rate started decreasing). God he's so terrible lmao
Someone else provided this guy with all his points... I know this because he can't even properly explain or defend the positions he's espousing or explain how he got to those conclusions!

Pee Wee look it’s one thing to source your data and come up with your own beliefs.
I think what we are talking about here is a guy has sources but can’t put together any substantive points using the data he brought up.
Unless you are a researcher you won’t have any unique data to work with. The rest of us take data and use it to form an opinion.
Vincent seems to have an opinion then he cherry picks random data to back up his opinion. Then when he can’t defend a challenge he falls apart 🤣

I thought destiny was just playing this guy talking on a loop, for a minute.
Wow, Destiny got Boise, Idaho'ed in this debate.
If it's 400,000.00 house holds that own the guns that means there is more access to guns, if there is 2-4 people per house that would mean you multiply the 400,000.00 guns x 2-4 which would make it 800,000.00 - 1,600,000.00 people who would have access to those guns, so the real gun ownership was somewhere between 600,000.00 - 1,000,000.00 in Australia during the time the gun related homicide rates dropped, proving Vincent's point, it's not the guns that are the problem, but the people, it's time for mind control 😈

US has 30 times more gun related homicides per capita compared to Australia.
Guns and crime are directly related.
Guns are force amplifier, it kills people easily because of which the victim's family wants to get revenge and the cycle of hatered is perpetuated and crime increases. Its more difficult to kill people with a knife.
Also police violence in US is because of guns. Police wouldn't shoot people at the first instance if they didnt suspect people of carrying guns.
People arguing guns dont cause violence have worms in their brain.😂
Boise, Idaho has had rising suicide rates think they are in the top ten as well. Kinda weird
I can't believe nobody ever explained percentages to this guy
They probably did
"We have more guns now than 90s"
"We have less guns now"
"But we have more concealed carry laws"
"But that has nothing to do with this"
"It does, let's move on"
@attackmaster555 wasnt the point that only number of Guns is increasing, but number of housholds with Guns is decreasing?

@Rage Quit take ur damn pills
In fact with that exact info you have to consider that the pill both worked and did not work at the same time. You can not draw any conclusions either way here... If both people are exactly the same, with exactly the same "amount of sickness", then we can say the pill was not needed (but we cant say that it did nothing unless we know what rate they got better at). However that requires 2 identical people...
If the people are not identical literally no conclusions can be drawn because the non-pill taking person may have recovered faster, yet the pill actually made this person recover slower... OR the pill could have done nothing, or the pill could have saved this person's life, etc...
Please think things through before posting gibberish, you make the rest of us look bad...

well that's actually fair. you don't need any evidence to argue that a causal relationship doesn't exist, it's all on the other person to argue that it does.
not defending the guy, he seems like an asshole and i hate guns. just being a contrarian.

@@HayashiKaiji @Cakemagic you don't have to provide any evidence at all to make the claim that A does not cause B. it's on the other person to provide evidence if they want to claim that A does cause B. if a causal relationship was already proven, then yes you would have to provide contrary evidence to claim that there was no causal relationship.

I think Destiny doesn't understand what he was saying in the beginning. He was saying that Destiny thought that the only reason Australia's gun violence went down was because of the buy back but the other guy was saying that that is not necessarily true because America's went down without a buy back. He wasn't saying America had anything to do with Australia's declining rate but that America is an example of a country going down without a buy back and so he was saying that its possible that the buy back in Australia had nothing to do with the declining rate and that America was proof that that was a possibility. This misunderstanding makes the debate hard to watch.
@Völkischen Agreed, I have a coworker that argues in this style where they will intentionally ignore/misunderstand so that their world view/opinion isn't damaged. Destiny is most likely like this person I know, a rampant narcisist know it all.
The point is just because one country has a decrease without it, doesn't mean the buyback didn't cause Australia's
@@thesonofdormammu5475 The point is just because one country has a decrease without it, doesn't prove the buyback didn't cause Australia's
.
@@TheMatthewDuvall So this is a matter of strength of evidence. Australia implemented a buyback program, they saw a decrease. Other countries that did not implement a buyback program also saw a similar decrease. There wasn't just one country that saw a decrease, it was a world wide trend. I would say that there were other factors that were making people WORLD WIDE not shoot each other and Australia was part of this trend.
@@TheMatthewDuvall the point is that the US should not copy australia's buy back program based on the alleged certainty that their decline was caused by the program. That's the context. That's why the two countries were being compared in the first place - people were using Australia as an example of a successful buy back program which America should emulate. Which is why the endless two way nature of "well that's not necessarily true" is irrelevant because the comparison sufficiently casts doubt on the original claim that the US would experience a decrease by doing what australia did.
Why do all these intellectually broke bois always say "we'll get into that" anytime destiny brings up a point

FACTS OVER FEELINGS !!!!!!
jesus fuck really?
_face palms so hard I crack my skull and my brain oozes out my ears_
To be fair, their is a huge population difference and less of a drug problem. I don't want to be anecdotal but drug crime in Australia is much smaller, generally in the US it's more pervasive and normally leads to a huge bulk of homicides. It's also noted that in some major cities where crime has risen, the opposite has happened in the smaller surrounding suburbs per capita. So I think using homicide rate country by country is pretty disingenuous.
@@TePiCkLeOfDoOm I agree with most of what you said, save for the population difference. There's no evidence that higher population leads to higher homicide rates. At least not on a country level.
@@Duckman1616 That point can be debated, more people are vulnerable to crime and more people tend to do it where their is more people, cultural difference is a big reason too, it explains why the city is more vulnerable to crime.

@@miketheman4341 exacary
Flip the argument. "The Australian Gun buyback was incredibly successful look how much it lowered America's homicide rate." Just as reasonable as his argument in the beginning.
@IcantSeeReplies Doubting alone makes for an unassailable position. If his position is crime was going to drop anyways, present it.
It's really easy to just say "Well, you can't prove it was because of ____"
@IcantSeeReplies Wrong. Vince is saying that America's homicide lowering tangentially disproves the causal relationship between the buyback program and Australia's lowering homicide. This can only be true if a gun buyback program is the ONLY possible way to lower homicide, which obviously it is not. He repeatedly talks as if he thinks destiny is making the argument that the buyback program is responsible for 100% of the drop in homicide, when in reality there is just substantial evidence that it CONTRIBUTED. Any number of other factors could have lowered homicide in America.
@IcantSeeReplies There is evidence of a direct causal link between the NFA and lowered gun death rates in Australia.
@@testacer5101 What is the direct link as this seems to be the kind of conclusion studies on this matter come to: "Attributing reductions in suicide and homicide rates to the NFA is complicated by the fact that these rates were decreasing even before the NFA was enacted. There is more evidence consistent with the claim that the NFA caused reductions in firearm suicides and mass shootings than reductions in violent crime, but there is also evidence that raises questions about whether those changes can be attributed to the NFA or to other factors that influenced suicide and mass shooting rates around the time the NFA was implemented."

It's irrelevant to the current situation of course because guns do still exists and banning them doesn't mean that the guns will necessarily disappear.
The OP wasn't even saying that he was for banning guns. You just jumped to the conclusion through the use of your amazing dialogue tree mentality. Didn't even give him the benefit of the doubt. Fuck asking for clarifications, am I right? That's definitely the way to live your life. I'm glad you clarified that to me cause then I'll just do the same thing to you.

And what research have you done? Care to share any of it?

@@117Ender the topic... is about gun control. Every point VJ makes is based on data that he didn't even seem to read properly.

The reason why the Australia debate is pointless is because first of all Australia, never had a gun problem to begin with, second Australia never had much of a gin culture, whereas America does. America is literally like 5 times their size, and much more diverse, America has constant immigration from dangerous countries that it borders whereas Australia does not.

It’s honestly extremely unscientific to compare one country’s policies with another because there are innumerable confounding variables that would ruin such a comparison based on a binary variable (had gun buyback/did not). It would be disingenuous to claim causality in the first place, but acting like you can explain one country’s crime rates from another ignores social attitudes, political structure and policy application, access to therapy, local news biases, etc. is patently absurd
"All's I'm Saying" *intensifies*
I know I'm gonna get shit for saying this in the comments, but for the first issue, Vincent is right. Coorelation does not imply causation -> first rule of statistics anyone who's taken a stats course knows this. The onus is on Destiny to prove otherwise; if he asserts that there is a causal link between the two, he needs more evidence. Arguing that Vince must disprove the link or else it must exist is a fallacy ->Russell's Teapot

Vincent states that Destiny was applying a "causal link" to the Australia Gun Buy Back program and the homicide decrease in Australia (Where does he say that)?
Vincent says "that it can't be if the homicide rate in America dropped even more substantially than the homicide rate in Australia in the 90s"
Destiny claims this non-sequitur and it is. Expressed formally, Vincent is saying "if the homicide rate in America decreased more substantially in the America, then the Australia gun buy back program did could not have contributed the homicide decrease in Australia"
This is a non-sequitur stated as a formal conditional statement. These things have nothing to do with one another.
The point that Vincent was trying to compare that If America's homicide rate decreased when their was no gun amnesty, that there are possible causes of decreasing the homicide rate that don't involve gun amnesty programs. He then compares that to Australia, whose homicide rate remains the same in the presence of a gun buyback/ amnesty program.
He's trying to make the point that there are possible other and more effective methods of decreasing the homicide rate rather than gun amnesty.
The strongest argument that he could have made should have been something along the lines "I don't believe that the gun buyback program was effective in the decreasing crime because after the program was enacted in 1996 ; the homicide rate remained relatively constant and even slightly increased over the next 5 years; and he somewhat alludes to this at around 6:30" Then he could have said following that something along the lines of
"In addition, since there are various western countries whose homicide rate decreased in the absence of violent crimes, I believe that there are effective methods of reducing the homicide rate rather than gun amnesty". That would have been a good argument that actually relates back to the data that he has.
10:15 No it doesn't Vincent. We can see your argument, but you're not stating it appropriately.
10:55 Bingo, so Vincent actually gets Destiny right here if we're talking about the 1996 gun buyback program. The data shows that Destiny's claim is wrong. And there is no refuting this.
11:21 It seems that Vincent realizes the issue with what he said earlier.
13:15 I don't think Vincent reviewed this data beforehand and misread the graph. Given the data, this suggest that the gun buyback program decreasing the number of mass shootings. And that after 2002 there would not have been another shooting until 17 years down the line. So this seems to support Destiny's Argument.
16:45 It seems that Destiny is looking at the data from 2011-2012.
1:00:57 Because violent crime is relevant to protecting gun rights. One of the main points of people in favor of controlling gun ownership is that they believe that it is positively correlated - and in some instance even causes - violent crime. Vincent is trying to refute that point. It's not that he doesn't care about the amount of harm being to people or that he values it more than protecting gun rights. He's trying to make an argument that lax gun laws do not increase violent crime. Unfortunately, Vincent doesn't make it clear that this is his point but it is pretty obvious that's what he's trying to get at.
1:04:30 Vincent, you should be able to understand what he's saying right here. Destiny is arguing that the people who sell firearms illegally obtain them legally by purchasing them through some authorized dealer. But they sell the firearms illegally to people who commit violent crimes. In order to keep guns out of the hands of people who commit violent crimes, Destiny is arguing that making it more difficult for people to purchase firearms legally will make it more difficult to get them in the hands of the people who commit violent crimes. That argument seems logical but it would require some analysis.
1:10:00 Destiny has a better source than Vincent. His study is more much more broad than Vincent's Chicago study that only looks at a principality as opposed to Destiny's that look at inmates from across the United States.
1:26:05 This is a good point by Destiny and Vince disregards the question. Now according to the data that Vince had given apparently the amount of gangs per capita at 1996 and 2012. Now I did some easy math myself in order to check for the number of gangs per 100,000 people. The populations in 1996 and 2012 respectively in the United states were 269.7 million and 314 million. Taking the data from Vince's statistics reports suggest that the amount of gangs per 100,000 people were 313.86 vs 270. So in terms of per capita that is about a 14% drop.
So in absolute terms in 2012 there are more gang members, but relative to the population there are less members overall. Now, Vincent should have been more careful about selecting his data because this is only 2012. It doesn't give the gang membership of 2019, which would be better for a more recent analysis/ study. (And this might go back to Vincent's point about gang databases being deleted is a bad thing). But here Destiny is right. This information suggest that the rate at which people are joining gangs is decreasing over time.
1:46:42 This is not a completely illogical hypothesis, but at the same time it doesn't addresses Destiny's point. Destiny is making the argument that if a person has easier access to a firearm, the likelihood of them killing themselves increases compared to when they didn't have one. So the real question is, if i have a population that didn't have access to firearms for a period of time, and then i introduce laws that make it easier to purchase fire arms, Will the suicide rate increase, decrease or remain about the same.
That is the real question and that's the one he's asking you about. You making graphs that suggest that the per 100,000 suicide rate in the other countries doesn't address the problem. This isn't a good metric to suggest whether having easier access to guns increases or decreases suicide.
1:59:20 This is a good hypothesis by Vince. This could be due the a matter of numbers. If Destiny's study is only looking at the set of all crimes that have defensive break-in's and how many of them successfully defended themselves using some item other than a firearm and those who successfully defended themselves without one, then that could just be because that more people weren't in possession of a gun when they were being attacked. In order to measure such an effectiveness you need to take two sets of incidences. One of them would be where people are attacked who used something other than a firearm to defend themselves, and the other set would be people who attacked but used a firearm to defend themselves, and determine the total success rate.
I can't go through all the logical fallacies that are being committed on both sides. I think this debate was over all unorganized. I think both of them are "attempting" - attempting because they don't seem to be able to make them clear, even though you can sort of infer what they are trying to say - to make certain points. The whole debate is just bad due to misinformation because even at the very beginning neither one of them really understand what the other's argument was. This could be done again but I think both of them need to set the groundwork for what they are arguing for and against and the other people needs to get good analyses that supports their argument, find things that counter the other persons, and also
look for arguments that counter their own.
Overall this is a pretty bad debate. They both just repeat the same things without really asserting the other person's argument. More critical analysis and thinking needs to be done if there is to be a round 3. And hopefully if there is another debate that both Destiny and Vincent are looking for the truth of the matter and not arguing for some sort of agenda that they believe to be right. What is the truth of the matter should always be the objective for these types of debates.
This debate has so many pivots I feel like I need to take a dancing class to follow along.

The point this guy, and in fact all conservatives, is that "we can't know any policy's effects for sure", while being very selective about which specific policies he takes issue with.
It's such an old, tired tactic, employed by reactionaries of every nation, because it allows you to not explicitly say what you want to achieve, while still effectively arguing for it by arguing *against* everything else.
@JustARandomUser2001 Fair enough point, I guess, but nothing he said is something a conservative will disagree with, so the distinction is pretty academic.

I was actually at Monash University when that shooting happened and some of my friends were in the same building. That guy was an angry sociopath who was subdued by two people in the room after he killed two people. There was no way he could have done that much damage if he only had a knife.
You are sheep
emarskineel oh you’re a smart one. 😂
iamsheep he couldn’t have killed two people with a knife? Im not familiar with case
Jeff Cooper you don’t run away or attack him when you see him stab someone? You dumb arse
iamsheep I think it's too much of an assumption to say a knife wouldn't result in more injury or death. He could've just as easily stabbed the 2 people that subdued him.
That being said I agree with the general assumption that it's easier to cause a greater amount of harm with a gun.
