Your stats are way off base.

I think thats part of the issue some on the board are pointing out to you and pepsi. You present yourselves as having some insider knowledge or educated opinion. But in reality, you cherry pick whatever information you need to support your already formed opinion.

And you side stepped the question because it makes you feel uncomfortable to challenge your belief.

Someone made a comment earlier in the thread that I think many should rethink - its ok to be outraged by what happened to Floyd, and also be outraged by the riots. Both are senseless.
