I blame the news media.
Maybe it’s hard-core libs killing themselves in their despair over Trumpitler. Wonder if we could get him a few more terms....
Hmmm.....Let’s see, since 1999:
1) Lame duck President in Bill Clinton ducks off from impeachment removal, he bombs Kosovo, ignores Bin Laden
2) Deadlocked 2000 election results in paralysis
3) 9/11/2001
4) Endless wars in Iraq/Afghanistan
5) Katrina
6) Obama and the Sharptonist BLM talk
7) Demonizing the right
8) Wage stagnation
What do you expect?
so, we’re all NOT going to die, only 33%
Two main factors.
Apostasy. Loss of belief in and relationship with God
Tyranny. The rise of the technocratic police state.
CONgress to busy trying to dump Trump they don’t have time for crap like suicides. Unless.it involves gun legislation.
SUICIDE IS PAINLESS ~ MASH

I blame drugs. They destroy motivation. They ruin health. They inflict poverty. They are a dead end.
I wonder how closely this tracks with the encouragement of perversion by the media .
I blame the schools, parents, and liberal politicians who have turned a large majority of the youth in this country, into weak, whining, and selfish individuals, who have no respect for anyone else, and who seem to think that the world owes them whatever their little hearts desire. And when they don’t get their way, they pout, stamp their feet, and throw temper tantrums. They’ve been taught to be intolerant of others, their thoughts, and beliefs, and this intolerance can lead to violence against those with opposing viewpoints. These kids have never been made to accept responsibility for their actions, but instead, are taught to blame something, or someone else for their behavior, and failures in life. They have no idea how to handle stress, or disappointment either. Instead of facing their problems head-on, they feel it’s easier to just check out. I’d bet that most of the people who commit suicide have had little or no religious beliefs in their lives.
No God, no life.
The U.S. murder rate is dropping, and in general, changes in suicide and homicide rates follow each other. So being really cynical, this means the suicide rate is staring to decline and the news is bringing it up while they can make a issue of it.
The suicide rate in the military doubled 8 instantly in 2008 when Obama changed the rules of engagement.
I think social media, smart phones and the 24 hour news cycle all probably contribute to this.
Freegards
From 1997 to 2016, the percent of suicides committed with guns dropped from 60% to 50%.
Yet those opposed to an armed population claim guns are a major cause of suicide.
During the same period, the per capita number of guns went up from .78 to 1.3, about a two thirds increase.
More guns, but a lower percentage of guns used in suicide.
Fentanyl death?
People are killing themselves because they prefer death to Clown World.
Opioid epidemic, constant Wars, the economic downturn during the Odungo administration, and the general perverting of the culture. I bet those four things explained 90% of the increase.
Demonrats killing themselves off in the era of Trump?
Secularism leads to loss of meaning and hope. Devaluation of life follows.
