I have found an interesting table of statistics [I know, I know] for 2002. The table is called the "Leading Causes of Death in the United States". I was unable to locate anything more upto date that 2002. The table seems to naturally fall into a "top ten" causes of death simply due to the numbers and percentages involved I guess. Can you guess the number one cause of death in the USA in 2002?

If I’m not mistaken, the leading cause of deaths in the U.S. is ABORTIONS: 3,300 EACH DAY which works out to 1,500,000 per year. I failed to see that in the list.

Saliva. Swallowed slowly in small amounts over a long period of time.

All Ages

Motor Vehicle Accidents 43,354
Firearms 28,663

It is time for serious background checks before licensing drivers.

But, but, but AIDS didn't even make the list. This has to be wrong.

Or did the Pandemic not ever show up? We're all supposed to be dead my now. I read it in the LA Times in the late 80's so you know it has to be true.

Government statistics will not show this, but
i believe that the Food and Drug Administration
is the most lethal agency in the United States.

The self-righteous and omniscient FDA forbids free men and women to cope with their medical maladies as they may judge best, thereby depriving them of
avenues of aid that have been well-proven elsewhere.

Their obligatory approval procedures also add many billions to the costs of healthcare in this country.

More than 96% of Americans die within six months of their birthday.

Unbelievable, but true.

Mainstream media still reading the New York Homosexual Times as its primer.

Leading cause of death is birth. Without birth, there is no death.
