You keep repeating yourself with regard to some missing data. We could do an experiment on anything. It could be on any subject. It wouldn't matter what we were analyzing. If we had a big random sample, the study would be valid. We would not have to have complete data. I will give you an example. Let's say there is a traffic light that takes over 5 minutes to change. It takes so long for it to change, that many people get fed up and jaywalk when the light is red. If we wanted to figure out what percentage of people jaywalk at that light, do you think we would need to count every person for a year? Of course not. If we counted for just a couple of days and counted 1,000 people, that would probably be a plenty big enough sample to get a very good idea of what percentage of people are jaywalking that light. If we saw that 50 people jaywalked out of 1,000, that would tell us that 5% of the people jaywalk. That would a big enough sample to have fairly accurate data. If we counted 5,000 people, we would still get the same result. If we counted 5,000 people but then we lost the data on the final 1,000 people, would that change our result? Of course not. As long as you have a good size random sample, you don't need complete data. The percentages are not going to change.

it's not an experiment. data is not collected. not sure why you can't get that.

at any rate, this is going nowhere. you have a good weekend. may all your tickets be winners.

Insufficient opportunities for graft.

When/if the police find the perp, they need to "de-escalate rather than escalate" the situation
