get it yet

Maybe there are other factors involved , just maybe.. like maybe idiots buy red cars , speed and cause accidents, and if they dont have red cars they will go get blue cars or green cars
Normally i consider you a smart guy but somehow in this topic you're dumb as hell.

If you take away the most agressive breeds we'll end up with way less agressive breeds and way less accidents with dogs. You car example is totally different. The cars having nothing to do with it. If you take away the top 3 of agressive drivers there would be less accidents. No matter what colour car.

Your emotions are getting in the way of clear thinking. Move away from the screen for a few mins and come back, calm down, read the thread again and try to make sense.
