There's an exception to every rule - [http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5764886.html these three young men were homeschooled], and it doesn't seem like this is model behavior?  [[User:JerryMander|JerryMander]] 18:53, 9 May 2008 (EDT)

: No, that's not model behavior, I agree!  I also agree that there is often an exception to correlations.  But the [[liberal]] attempt to disprove correlation with a counterexample is fallacious.  See point #6 in [[liberal logic]].  It's amazing how many people are fooled by that trick.  Would they also conclude from seeing a 100-year-old smoker that smoking does not cause lung cancer???

: And, I might add, often the counterexamples are not really as they appear.  The article says the 17-year-olds are homeschooled.  I wouldn't be surprised based on their conduct if they were expelled from or dropped out of [[public school]]; note that the newspaper does not say that they have always been homeschooled.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 19:31, 9 May 2008 (EDT)
