    Trying to justify perception and stating it exists are two different things. I can speak to both. It definitely exists and the reason it exists is due to verifiable information.

    Your statistical analysis cannot disprove perception because people are more likely to accept anecdotal evidence. That is just human nature.

    You can definitely fight back with anecdotal information yourself (ie: My relatives traveled to the US and has a splendid time with no problems) but trying to sway people with statistics is a non-starter for a lot of people.

        You are telling me you can absolutely alter people’s belief with statistics!? Perhaps a few people who believe in this type of analysis.

        All your comments give me the Impression I am talking to a brick wall. Maybe it is a ESL thing or perhaps your profound lack of reading comprehension. Any insight?

          My insight is that you’re a cunt.

          If you want to not talk to a brick wall try engaging properly, defending your position (or changing it) and not resorting to insults. Not on me though, I’m outta here.

            Oh yes a brick wall that acts like an asshole. I was guessing this is where it was heading because you have been a shithead this whole time.

            Respectfully gent bent.
