Original Note:
Aquatic Citrus Stork's argument is invalid. You cannot imply a causal argument from the data in the chart, any more than you can imply causation to the rise in sells of chocolate ice cream to the rise in school shootings, because correlation doesn't imply causation. https://www.jmp.com/en_us/statistics-knowledge-portal/what-is-correlation/correlation-vs-causation.html#:~:text=Correlation%20tests%20for%20a%20relationship,correlation%20does%20not%20imply%20causation.%E2%80%9D
