Reply to comment by tommytornado in US States, Police Training v Shootings/Violent Crime (per million) [OC] by tommytornado

How on Earth can your response to the comment be, I'm not sure what you're saying? It can't be more clear cut. The graph can't be more clear cut. You have the perfect outliers either side and a scrap of no correlation for the rest of it.

OP is being super defensive, which makes me feel like all this is just politically motivated.

Not even in the slighest politically motivated. My motivation was to demonstrate the problems of attempting correlations from a dataset with two features.

>So no correlation whatsoever

This was your response, which I found very confusing as it wasn't clear to me if you were referring to my graphic, or the original graphic in the post https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/yw5xb8/correlation_between_police_training_and_fatal/

Wasn't my response. And why would anyone know a link to a different graphic unless you specifically mention it, something you have not done 🤷
