1. Confusing correlation with causation fallacy.
The chart is being used inappropriately to indicate that there is a correlation with causation. Namely that juvenile crime is down.
The chart could just as easily indicate that...
The juveniles could just be getting smarter about not being caught or the law enforcement officers just don't care.

You are beyond dense. Chrissy said that 1) we have "way more teen crime" today and 2) this phenomenon is caused by the fact that parents are spanking less.
Chrissy is the one who implied a causal relationship between spanking and teen crime. All I did is provide the underlying facts that show us that her entire premise is wrong - because teen crime is currently near historical lows.
Now, if you wish to make the case that teen crime really isn't at historical lows and that it may very well be much higher due to the suggestion that today's teens are smarter and are getting caught less, well, that is certainly your choice. Just realize that you're speculating out of your ass.
I'm simply pointing out your statistical fallacy.
You're the one full of...
