    I like how you explained how the dataset was biased, then instead of describing how to eliminate/reduce that bias, you applied the same underlying tactic to make someone else look bad instead.

      Oh, I’m just curious about alternatives. There’s a lot of ways to measure this, but only a few that are mostly unbiased.

      The results will likely always be skewed one way or another, since this is about punishment, not the number of people committing the crime. It’s impossible to know how many people drive while intoxicated, we only know how many get caught doing it. The data is flawed from the start.
