The latitude and longitude would be around 30 degrees latitude and around 100 degrees longitude, around the southern United States. guessing my hometown, I believe it is 32 degrees latitude, -97 degrees longitude. I do believe my hometown is one of the centers of my hashtag since it is a major topic of discussion.<\/p>\n<p>Out of 53,146 tweets, only 19 had geolocations, meaning I only have .0004% mappable tweets. This low percentage is very surprising to see. This data definitely under-represents the population, because the sample size is way too small for all of these tweets to represent the larger whole.Based on the latitude and longitude, it appears as if most of the tweets are located around the southern states, from 25-35 degrees latitude. This connects back to my earlier point about the southern states having the most discussion about the second amendment. all of the mappable tweets are in English,\u00a0and the majority of non-mappable tweets are in English as well.<\/p>\n<p>I do not think i have big data in this mappable data since the percentage is so low compared to the amount of data gathered. The unmappable tweets are big data to me, but I am not sure why the majority are not mappable. The .0004% seems very low compared to most, however, this is a very controversial topic being discussed, thus people might not want their location known.<\/p>\n\n<!-- iframe plugin v.4.5 wordpress.org\/plugins\/iframe\/ -->\n<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"520\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/hquarls.carto.com\/builder\/9053ab36-f61f-11e6-985b-0e3a376473ab\/embed\" 0=\"allowfullscreen\" 1=\"webkitallowfullscreen\" 2=\"mozallowfullscreen\" 3=\"oallowfullscreen\" 4=\"msallowfullscreen\" scrolling=\"yes\" class=\"iframe-class\"><\/iframe>\n\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>looking back on the data collected, I would think that most of the tweets would come from the Southern and Northeastern areas of the United States as well as California since these are the locations where the second amendment is being discussed.
