Let me check the math here....6/10 are suicides....the remaining 4 is drugs....that sure seem to add up to 100%. At least you have an objective opinion here, not at all tainted by bullshit statistics you just pull right out of your ass or anything.Sure do, but only if you accept cdc and doj stats and decades of reporting by organizations like the new york times as objective. The reason we have a gun problem in this country is that we can't get anti-gun folks to focus on the gun problem in this country...even though they seem to be, and see themselves as, the ones most motivated to solve it. You've got google, let wonder lead you to knowledge.
I hope you don't mind that I snipped the rest, I don't feel like bickering with you over irrelevancies, or backtracking you through every jot and tittle of your statements. It would be tiresome. The forums exist, the posts are there. Good enough for me.
I don't mind at all that you snipped the rest. These discussions can grow quickly tiring.
But I don't see you actually answering the question there. 100% of gun deaths in America are suicides and drug related? You know that isn't true. I've read at least 3 or 4 articles in the past few months about toddlers shooting people because of careless gun owners. There are PLENTY of accidental deaths by gun. And the Pulse night club was a crazy person, not 49 suicides while scoring a fix.
Look, I know you weren't really saying that 100% of gun deaths are suicides and drug related. I know you don't really believe that. What I am attempting to point out is that artificially changing the statistics in your favor shows a bias and maybe you're not really being objective here. Artificially changing those numbers to be 100% in your favor is taking it to a ludicrous level of bias.
And the CDC can't study gun violence and haven't been allowed to for 20 years, so I'm not sure where these numbers from the CDC you mentioned are supposed to be coming from.
But you know what? We really shouldn't be hijacking the thread for a personal side discussion. We disagree and that's okay. Go ahead and get in another response if you like and then what say we call it good after that? We are unlikely to convince each other, we probably have more common ground than we realize anyway and, really, it doesn't matter. We don't agree on something because we're not robots with a hive mind. It's not a big deal.
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately? Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use. Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel. Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.
