The statement 'I said “if”, but new data supports my conjecture.' is part of a broader conversation about a public issue involving a shooting incident and the subsequent public and media reactions. The tone is defensive and aims to clarify a previous statement in light of new evidence. The intent is to address a critique about jumping to conclusions without evidence.

  1. Principle 1:
    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.
    The statement does not appear to cause harm directly, but it is part of a sensitive discussion about a violent incident. It neither significantly upholds nor violates this principle.
  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement respects the privacy and dignity of others by focusing on the evidence and the conjecture rather than engaging in personal attacks or hate speech. [+1]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement aims to promote understanding by clarifying the basis of a previous conjecture with new data, which can be seen as an attempt to foster a more informed discussion. [+1]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in constructive dialogue by addressing a critique and providing additional information rather than resorting to personal attacks. [+1]
  5. Principle 5:
    I will acknowledge and correct my mistakes.
    The statement implicitly acknowledges the possibility of a mistake by referencing the conditional 'if' and then updating the stance based on new data, which aligns with the principle of acknowledging and correcting mistakes. [+1]
  6. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement upholds the principles of free speech and uses the platform to responsibly update the public discourse with new information. [+1]
