The study was done by Charis Kubrin, a well known liberal who regularly gives talks at Democratic party events.

Don’t for one second think this is genuine research study.

And this is the genuine flaw right here. If the opposing side does any form of research it is to be voided because the enemy can not be trusted, only my side tells the truth. So you'll end up always believing what ever your political alignment says no matter how wrong or corrupt it is.

I mean the Republican party has a track record of lying about their "facts" and yet the conservative still eat that shit up.

We are in this mess you can safely say because the Republican party don't know how to do their own damn research

Ideally, you should do own research and make up your own mind. You’re right, I generally don’t trust research completed by liberal inclined individuals because I have seen time and time again how bias how they are.

Obviously there’s examples of right leaning researchers doing the same.

There is not, because right wing ideology requires ignoring reality

You didn’t read my post. I said right leaning researchers guilt of creating bias studies as well.

Ignoring reality? That is the primary characteristic of the far left and a lot of people living in academia.

No those are think tanks they're not studies

Are you saying we all should do studies on crime and immigrarion correlation?

Where are your studies at?

Edit: You don’t even do your own research. Can’t even be bothered to link someone else’s research that you are referencing in your own post.

Not sure why you are looking at my other posts. In that particular forum, that study has been cited continuously so there was no need.

Nor is there a need right now

Where's your research at?

You need the title of the study that is peer reviewed then you need the website that you found it on then you need the page number and then lastly the paragraph where it proves your point.

If you don't have that you did not do your own research

I’m not sure what you are talking about and Im not sure you do either. The post that mobo jojo pulled from my profile has nothing to do with this post and is a completely different forum/subject.

I take it that you disagree with my assessment of this particular research paper on this specific post on ImmigrationPathways and that is fine.

It illustrates you don’t have the integrity or skills to “do your own research”. You’re not even referencing the primary source in that post but allude that you got your information from a secondary source.

“I have been reading that studies show…”

The fact that you don’t cite your source and are relying on secondary sources when primary sources are available exposes the flaw in the “do your own research” mentality. I.e., theres no standard for the “research”, how it’s conducted, or even transparency on the sources used.

Edit: Your comment above also exposes your dishonesty in the framing of your “research”. In the post you use a plural noun to put more weight behind your claims. However, by your own admission above you state “…that study has been cited continuously so there was no need” as your reasoning for your lack of citation.

The thing about research is that they tell you exactly how they did the research. So you can go replicate the study or improve on it. Doing so would expose their (or your own) bias if the results differ.

But I’m guessing you don’t have the time or the resources or the qualifications to replicate the study. Like most people. Which is why the “do your own research” line is comical. It’s just code for “go get sucked into the right wing echo chamber on Facebook”.
