We are talking about the overall average. I never deny that there are many shithole cities in blue states, Cal included. It's also possible that the most shithole places are in blue states. I am not talking about this in this thread. I am talking that on average, red states have higher crime rate, which is supported by the data you provided.
Using YOUR data, I showed that red states have 8% higher crime rates. And then you said the data is invalid because it might be incomplete? If you are able to, show how my analysis is flawed, instaed of just "I don't need to lecture you on scientific method".

What's wrong with my interpretation?
Multiple each state's rate to its population, add them up, then divide the sum by the total population. That gives you the overall average of each group of states. What's wrong with it?
You are not consistent. In some posts, you said my interpretation/analysis was flawed. In some other, you said the data was not completed. What exactly did you mean?
you make a statement , your slice the data , you have to proof it , complete it . my data don't need slice , shows blue is on top. I don't need to lecture you on scientific method, right?
