We just don't get what a senseless mass shooting has to do with any of the other data he's talking about

We're working to prevent medical errors. We're working to prevent the flu. We're working to prevent suicide. We're working to prevent car accident. We're doing fuck all about mass shootings. Spot the difference, Neil.

Making a didactic if factually accurate point does not always equate to intelligent or productive discourse. And this was neither inteligent nor productive. Disappointed to read this from you.

The difference is that mass shootings have never inspired a single effective action to ensure that they never happen again. The equivalent would be if nobody worked on flu vaccines, or effective treatment, despite people needlessly dying from it.

Medical errors: staff can be suspended, fired, have their licenses to practice medicine revoked. Patients or their families can sue the hospital. Staff can be re-trained, if appropriate, or punished. Policies can be made to prevent it happening again (see Harold Shipman case).

Since you’re talking about data, how about this fact. More people were murdered in El Paso and Dayton yesterday than are killed by guns in Japan in an entire year. Do you know why?

By your logic, I guess the Holocaust wasn't such a big deal since malaria also kills about a million people per year. While terrorism of any kind is not the most likely cause of death, but we still must take action to prevent it! We mandate seat-belts and vaccines too!

1. The medical errors number is wrong. It’s based on grossly extrapolated data with no autopsy confirmation and assumes that if someone died after surgery it was due to the surgery and not to the underlying disease the surgery was for. 2. Mass shootings are homicides.

@neiltyson do you really want to use comparative data to effectively minimize the human reaction to the horror of a mass fatality incident? All of these deaths are preventable and we should be working on all of them.#NotOneMore
