Title: Drug overdose deaths outnumber gun deaths

Drug Overdose Death Rates

More than 106,000 persons in the U.S. died from drug-involved overdose in 2021, including illicit drugs and prescription opioids. The figure above is a bar and line graph showing the total number of U.S. drug overdose deaths involving select illicit or prescription drugs from 1999 to 2021. The bars are overlaid by lines showing the number of deaths by gender from 1999 to 2021 (Source: CDC WONDER).

The drug death rates can be legitimately compared to gun deaths because they both occur within the same population total.
Were they compared to another country then the rate per a set figure would have to be used.

How many innocent people that do not take drugs are killed by mass drug overdoses???

How many innocent school children are murdered by drug overdoses???

Who's decision is it take drugs!!!

All this bullshit comparison shows is how stupid the OP is....There is no comparison to self inflicted drug overdoses and mass shootings of innocent people!!!

"I can't breath!"
...how many people were raped, bashed, killed, murdered, pillaged, had their livelihoods burnt to the ground, looted, etc?
All by some Fentanyl junkie's lack of personal responsibility and reluctance to comply to law?

For decades, many FBI agents would say "I can't breath!" when shoved into a police car, restrained, etc - because, while in plain clothes. They willingly refused to comply with Police Officers who were in an 'unsure' state of their identity until proven? Would you take it easy if some guy said he was FBI, refused to follow orders, etc? Hell no.
These FBI agents use their arrests as a means to sue the Police Departments for nice retirement payouts. They're basically 'scamming' the system and most Americans when the Police are called - all do the same "I can't breath." excuse to both Soccer Dive and not comply. George Floyd was no different.

The exclamation mark is probably somewhat superfluous here, Mort. I mean, one could probably say the same about, you know - school shootings!

Domestic homicides!

Youth suicides!

Do you think the use of punctuation gives these statistics the gravitas they deserve?

An attempted comparison between US firearm deaths and
drug overdose deaths is, of course, untenable.  I guess the
intention of this absurd OP was an attempt to diminish the
impact of gun deaths in some way.

US gun-related deaths from preventable, intentional, and
undetermined causes totalled 48,830 in 2021 —which as
well as being disastrous would be largely preventable by
rewriting the outmoded 2nd Amendment in order to suit a
21st century society as well as currently available firearms,
rather than 200-year-old  single shot long guns.

At any rate, it's highly unlikely that any nutjob with a grudge
against society is gonna walk into a shopping mall or school
armed with a handful of Es or a bag of meth and kill ten or
twenty people on the spot is it?

"Between 1982 and December 2023, 80 out of the 149 mass shootings in the United States were carried out by White shooters.

The right of people to keep and bear arms on their own property shall not be infringed.

Under no circumstance may a citizen carry a firearm in a public area, unless given a legal permit in the court of law.

Firearm purchasing and ownership requirements include: a legal background check, no criminal record, at least 21 years of age, and must be neurotypical.

Assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition firearms of all kinds are prohibited from purchasing or possessing by any individual.

Governmental agencies have the right to possess all forms of weapons in order to secure the
freedom of the state and safety of the country.

Yes, subculture. Something you conveniently ignore. We are not the people who raise mass shooters, our children grow up to be well payed, productive citizens. Now if you would like to allow our democrats to immigrate they can bring their insanity to your country.

Because the rate of murders has been in steady decline ,9.95 murders/100,000 in 1990 dropping to 6.81 in2021, whilst the number of guns in civilian hands rose .
Shewing that more guns means less crime.
“ The homicide rate in the United States is expected to plummet nearly 13% compared to 2022, meaning more than 2,000 fewer people were the victims of homicide this year, Jeff Asher, a national crime analyst, told ABC News.”

More Guns Do Not Stop More Crimes, Evidence Shows

More firearms do not keep people safe, hard numbers show. Why do so many Americans believe the opposite?

Because ...


Whatever the "because", mort was wrong.

How would you rewrite the Second Amendment?


The right of people to keep and bear arms on their own property shall not be infringed.

Under no circumstance may a citizen carry a firearm in a public area, unless given a legal permit in the court of law.

Firearm purchasing and ownership requirements include: a legal background check, no criminal record, at least 21 years of age, and must be neurotypical.

Assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition firearms of all kinds are prohibited from purchasing or possessing by any individual.

Governmental agencies have the right to possess all forms of weapons in order to secure the
freedom of the state and safety of the country.

That’s not a rewrite ...


It is, actually.

“Under no circumstance may a citizen carry a firearm in a public area, unless given a legal permit in the court of law.”
What about going to the assistance of a police officer who needs help?

Or to the assistance of a little old lady who is being threatened by a group of youths?

Or the next door neighbour who is being attacked in the street?

And why no criminal record?

The criminal offence may have nothing to do with violence, it may have been avoiding taxes, passing bad cheques and we should always remember that.time sentenced can be the definitor and this can vary from State to State and even vary within a State, in fact it can depend on weather the Judge got a nookie the night before.

Reports are hard to find after originally reported.

Where are migrants being housed in NYC?
The city has proposed using a variety of locations as emergency housing for migrants. It has housed people in hotels, emergency tent shelters on Randall's Island, school gymnasiums and office buildings and is now looking to new places, like the parking lot of a state psychiatric hospital.Dec 6, 2023

New York wanted to seize the cruise ships that sail out of there but were told by the cruise lines they will relocate before that happens.

"White America" does have its own gun problem:

In 2020, 12,179 Black Americans were killed with guns compared
with 7,286 white Americans.
   —https://wisqars.cdc.gov/fatal-reports

That's more than 7K unnecessary deaths due to firearms.  If you
seriously consider that to be NOT a problem Mort, then you're even
less compassionate than I thought.  And, ironically, your comment
along these lines is itself based on your own inherent racism.

Not so at all...

   Firearms and deaths by firearms in the EU.

There are currently 25 million gun owners in the EU. Together,
they own approximately 79.8 million guns. This means an average
gun ownership rate of 15.7 guns per 100 people.

The United States has the highest gun ownership rate with
120.5 firearms per 100 people. Yemen is second highest
with 52.8 firearms per 100 people.  In Australia, that figure
is only  3.4 firearms per 100 people.

Not if you're claiming asylum.


That's "legal immigration" in a nutshell: going to court and having your claim heard. That's the system.

If Mort wants to change this, he needs to encourage his federal representative to support legislative change.

Something tells me he won't. Something tells me Mort's just having a bit of a rant.

I do feel he needs more exclamation marks.

Unless you are an Asylum Seeker, Mort.  You need to acquaint yourself with the law, mate.  Tsk, tsk, tsk...  ::) ::)


The current rules are ignored, if you need to apply for asylum you go to the nearest safe country. You do not enter the US and vanish into this country. If you are able to return home on occasion to visit family you do not qualify. Invaders are coached on what to say to CBP and then apply for free food, phones, housing and a labor free income. Sex and drug trafficking are at an all time high as is violent crimes.

I know, Geoff, but you must admit, the old boy has a point. Whatabout the Jigaboos?

As Tucker says, Whitey just doesn't fight that way, it's not how we roll.

Sure, it can get really exciting when you see a crowd of red-blooded American patriots beat up a spade

Tucker's not proud about it, but he likes to watch the videos, cheering Whitey on. It can give one a cathartic sense of satisfaction to watch Leroy get what's coming, no?

Gun death by suicide is highest among whites.

Here's the Swedish data on criminality by race and ethnicity, from a Danish magazine:
The figure shows the proportion of people in the age group 15+ (all people who are 15 or older) who have been suspected of crime in the period 2015-2018, divided by area of ​​origin.
