- reinhardt 15y agoThe number of deaths is around 90 a day in the US. (...) I don't think it's as high as some think. Right, it's almost as low as the worst killing spree in Norway. Move along, nothing to see here.
- speckledjim 15y agoOTOH, around 60 people die per hour in the US from cancer.
- onan_barbarian 15y agoMotor vehicle accidents kill the young (rarely); cancer and cardiovascular disease kill the old (frequently). Oddly enough, people regard a 4 year old killed by/in a car as a worse outcome than that same 4 year old growing up to be an 89 year old killed by cancer or heart disease.
