40,000 Americans killed by Gun Violence last year

[JLW]

More people died from firearm injuries in the United States last year than in any other year since at least 1968, according to new data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

There were 39,773 gun deaths in 2017, up by more than 1,000 from the year before. Nearly two-thirds were suicides. It was the largest yearly total on record in the C.D.C.’s electronic database, which goes back 50 years, and reflects the sheer number of lives lost.

Nearly two-thirds were suicides.

Dems finally figured out Hillary lost?

also sounds like gangbangers are acting up more.


Got a better breakdown?

Oh, wait...

"About 70,000 people died from drug overdoses last year — almost double the number that died from guns, the health statistics center reported."

So, deaths from drug overdoses increased more than shootings?


hmmmm

get rid of guns, or get rid of drugs


what to do, what to do.....

 

[Preacher]

40,200 died in car accidents We should ban cars!
72,000 died from drug overdoses,we should ban drugs!
Preventable medical errors killed 400k people in 2017! We should ban doctors,hospitals,medicine etc etc!



Excluding most suicides, at least 15,549 people were killed by guns in the United States in 2017

So 25k of those were SUICIDES! Damn we should ban suicide!

 

[pismoe]

SUICIDES don't count as significant as the suiciders kill themselves . And the rest , how many were Criminals or associates of criminals involved in Crime . As to the rest , sorry to hear it but there are about 320 million in the USA that weren't killed by guns last year JLaw .

If someone commits suicide with a gun, they should not be allowed to purchase a firearm.

Suicide is a personal choice.

I'd much rather someone take their life with a gun than by putting other people's lives at risk in a vehicle or by jumping in front of a train.

Suicide attempts by jumping is about 1% of all suicides. Jumping in front of a train is probably .0000001% of all suicide attempts.

Most of those murders occurred in Democratically run cities, many with strong gun control laws.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Gang warfare is a terrible thing. Why do democrat socialists want to bring more gangs here?
