Dewicking Too Soon [1]


-->'''Trevor:''' I get what he was trying to do, like, he was trying to be, like, science-y in that moment. But first of all, [[TooSoon timing]]. Do you know what I mean? At a funeral is not a time to tell the people that the guy owed you money, that's not the time. Let's start with that, but secondly, I feel like it fundamentally missed the, I guess, the human element of what people are fighting for in America, and that is ''trying''. Trying is the thing. We ban dangerous cars. To get a car, you need a license. You need to go through a process, because we just want to minimize the ''chance'' of a person dying in a car.

* August 5: Over the weekend, after 2 mass shootings occurred in El Paso and Dayton less than 24 hours apart from each other, Creator/NeilDegrasseTyson tried to argue that the media disproportionately talks about mass shootings more than other statistically more likely problems, [[http://www.cc.com/video-clips/o29305/the-daily-show-with-trevor-noah-america-s-mass-shooting-epidemic---neil-degrasse-tyson-s-controversial-tweet---a-lack-of-trying but Trevor explains why NDT's comments were misguided]].
