In order to cling to your argument, you keep pretending the research
didn't take neighborhood characteristics into account, and didn't

<chuckle> None of Krygowski's cites showed evidence that anyone died

correlation implied causation, ignoring any other extenuating
conditions. Krygowski, of course, nodded his approval of the
fallacious nonsense.
