Excerpt:

The ruthless crimes struck a nerve, even in a nation that has seen a horrific amount of bloodshed in the past years : Young Iraqi girls abducted, continuously raped and then bludgeoned to death in two separate events near the southern city of Basra. Despite a conviction in one case, a handful of arrests in the other and intensified police patrols in the city, families in Basra stay on edge following the murders of 4-year-old Banin Haider and 5-year-old Abeer Ali in a span of less than two months. Now, many moms and dads in and around the city will not let their children go to school alone or even play outside after course is out, fearing their daughters, too, might be snagged off exchanges, sexually abused and killed.

  • The Mean is meant to be an indicator of an individual's average comment sentiment.
  • The Standard Deviation, when there are enough quotes, will indicate an individual's consistency of sentiment (i.e. a Standard Deviation of 0 would mean they were very consistent in their sentiment and 1 would mean they were very inconsistent).

Note that quote stats are likely to be meaningless beyond the aggregate score due to the tiny sample size. However, they are always provided just in case you find something useful there.
