@neiltyson
In the past 48hrs, the USA horrifically lost 34 people to mass shootings.

On average, across any 48hrs, we also lose…

500 to Medical errors
300 to the Flu
250 to Suicide
200 to Car Accidents
40 to Homicide via Handgun

Often our emotions respond more to spectacle than to data.

Leave it to a scientist to bring facts out into the open.

And how many die per 48 hours from heroin/fentanyl/meth overdoses? Drugs largely brought in through weak borders.





Over 260 per 48 hours

I like Neil deGrasse Tyson, and its a shame that a man cannot state the obvious without being beat down by the totalitarian fascists for saying it.

But that requires border security and immigration control, so of course, you are racist if you bring that up. /sarc

75% of all shootings in the USA since 2016 in which there are 3 or more victims, are perpetrated by blacks...

Don’t try to confuse the antis with facts. They know what they know.

Dan are you sure about this? Because of inner city gangs I could readily believe that most gun related homicide is black on black. The mass shooters who tend to kill 8 or more are mostly white if my memory is correct.

I'm not sure where to go for actual numbers,surely the FBI knows real numbers.

2017 looks like it is a very active year for active shooters. Of course, that was about when the lieberals ramped up their hate speech against Trump and America and began pushing socialism.

This has totally added to the snapping of the American mind and brought on all the violence.


We may know the time Ben Carson lied, but does anyone know the time Hillary Clinton told the truth?

Immersing oneself in progressive lieberalism is no different than bathing in the sewage of Hell.
