If you or one of your loved ones is one of the young, healthy people killed by it, then “what are the numbers” is irrelevant.
Was this taken from a Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence brochure? The wording is eerily similar. If only one life can be saved, then any measure to do so should be taken.
That’s a very far reach; about as far as I’ve seen in a long time.
This is a ridiculous statement, it is so broad that it can be applied to anything.
Except that it was a response to a ‘specific’ question made by a specific poster. More reaching.
Sure, it can be devestating to lose a loved one but there is no guarantee that any one of use will see the next minute let alone tomorrow.
That’s likely well known by any adult with adequate cognition. Thanks for pointing out the obvious though.
In 33+ years in the EMS field, I've seen more "unfair" deaths than many here and long ago came to the conclusion life ain't fair and death is fickle.
Awesome. 33 years myself as an ER nurse, flight nurse, and supervisor in a regional trauma and emergency center.
