How else can wonderful projects like this go on? It's totally understandable that this website is too big a project to be a mere hobby. I loved it, sorry to see it suspended, totally understand.

]]> Comment on A crime puzzle by Bia http://thepublicintellectual.org/2011/05/02/a-crime-puzzle/#comment-2312 Bia Mon, 11 Jun 2012 07:42:45 +0000 http://thepublicintellectual.org/?p=93#comment-2312 That's an interesting point. It seems to me that many reports fail to take every possible factor into account. But then again that may be impossible. However I think an inclusion of statistics regarding shootings and stabbings that don't lead to death is important too, and not overly prohibitive. That’s an interesting point.

Im just curious because I have a relative with similar issue. He mother became a us citizen when he was 9 years old, has no father on birth certificate, lived in US most his life, and turned 18 a month after the citizen act of 2000 law changed.
