(28,784 posts)After 70 years of lies and propaganda, people are not inclined to believe studies that indicate something their personal experience does not corroborate.
With good reason.
Although, no, something should not be dismissed out of hand just because it's not part of someone's personal experience, I agree.
In this case, however, better studies do not validate claims that these two cannot indicate as causal.
What's interesting, in terms of DU, is that this person posted this after the release of information that Trayvon Martin had THC in his bloodstream, combined with the reality that the person who created this post has been somewhat defensive about Zimmerman. These two factors also do not demonstrate causation. However, someone with a low post count who argues against the idea that Martin was murdered in cold blood who now also posts craptacular studies that show no causation about an issue that is tied to the most recent information about the Martin case... these are things that make you go... hmmmm.
