Amazing statistics. Now more Americans die from suicide than from car accidents.

We can’t get illegal aliens to self deport, but we can get infidels to self destruct. What a country.

Under progressive governance this is an objective goood unless a gun was involved. Guns are bad. Especially black ones. The guns, I mean.

Being a progressive is hard. No wonder they’re so tongue-tangled.

During Obama’s first four years, I went to my GP. He informed me that he had more patients now requesting sleep medication, anti-anxiety meds etc.. than he had ever seen in his entire practice. I asked “why?” and he said with so many job losses, foreclosures, money worries etc... that the “d*amn president” was affecting his patients health. With this suicide statistic... it really saddens me. I guess there are people who lose so much financially that they feel they have nothing left.

If we had a Republican president the media would be all over it, and homelessness as well.

The headline is false. Read the article carefully.

And actually the main reason that there are more suicide than car accident deaths is that automobile travel has gotten so much safer.

Something wrong with the math?

Suicides in the U.S. 2012 – 40,500* – Projected – Obama Administration

Suicides in the U.S. 2011 – 39,500* – Preliminary estimate numbers – Obama Administration

Suicides in the U.S. 2010 – 37,793 – Per Final CDC – Obama Administration

Suicides in the U.S. 2009 – 36,909 – Per Final CDC – Obama Administration

Suicides in the U.S. 2008 – 36,035 – Per Final CDC – Barack Obama is elected President

Suicides in the U.S. 2007 – 34,598 – Per Final CDC – Bush Administration

This may be connected to the fact that middle-aged individuals who find themselves out of work find it severely more difficult to find employment than their younger counterparts.

Which is it?

Older Americans staying in the workforce is supposedly the reason the young cannot get jobs and age discrimination is the reason that the old cannot get jobs. Maybe there just aren't jobs.

What more can we expect from Nobama?

Every mentor he has ever had, every friend he has ever had has looked to Lucifer for inspiration.

Suicide and abortion are sacramental gifts to their god.

When your only value is materialism and the money stops rolling in and you lose material you spent your life slaving to secure, plus you don’t see a hopeful material future under a racist, immoral socialism machine... Humanism, a Marxist world view, is shallow and devoid of self awareness, spirit, and all that makes us human. If you do not love the life of others, why would you value your own life?

In hard times only God, friends, family, love and humility pull you through. We are not what we own or what important job we hold. We are not our beautiful or ugly bodies.

In addition, all those little boys fed Ritlan their whole lives stunts their emotional development and they get depressed in their teens. To “cure” that they are put on anti-depresents and suicide is well documented when it is fed to young people. Everything about our culture today is dispiriting, dark...poison to the human soul. Many are taking a walk on the dark side and don’t even know that there is a light side.

I have to confess to battling clinical depression since Zippy came into office. I'll never understand his appeal to far too many people. It just feels so hopeless at times.

I just wish the damn Republicans would grow a pair and fight the son of a bitch at every turn.

Leftists are God's reminder of how much he hates us all.

Suicide can make perfect sense.
