Relative to what, again? The old days, before antibiotics? I mean, if you go back far enough, 1 out of 5 people died by homocide. That still wouldn't make it

Relative to what, again? The old days, before antibiotics? I mean, if you go back far enough, 1 out of 5 people died by homocide. That still wouldn't make it reasonable to say that we're "relatively good" if only 10 million Americans a year are getting murdered. Death, and specifically premature death, is still a very unfortunate reality. Playing it down as if "well it happened more often in the old days" is, frankly, a bit bizarre.
