Might be because the people in America (as a colony, way back) felt insulated from Europe and Middle East so they needed some religion that's a bit closer to home? That was always my take on Mormonism, especially the part where Jesus lived in the USA.

But we kind already knew people being stupid was the reason. This doesn't seem to bring anything new to the table.

I mean, I follow the presidental race somewhat because it has global impact, but watching the debates is not worth my time, and I'm fairly certain it's not worth anyone's time, especially non-americans.

That settles it. Has to be 60%.

A lot of people are saying it's true. Smart people. The best people are saying that.

Perhaps the officer had her dead-to-rights and decided to pull the trigger. Perhaps she jumped out from behind a corner saying, “OH THANK GO…!”. Perhaps she thought the cop was the intruder and came after him with a bat, etc., etc., etc

None of these scenarios should end with a bullet in her head, are you crazy?

So yeah, it's a bug in how we're coded.
