Covid19 related deaths in the US is roughly 186,000.

Anti-smoking ads by ‘truth’ claim 1,200 US citizens die each day from cigarette smoking.
So... x365, 438,000 per year and we sell cigarettes.

Abortion deaths claimed 862,000 in 2017, couldn’t find a more recent count. I’m assuming it is 862k or greater.

Accidental deaths (unintentional injury related) claim 169,936 yearly average in the US.

Heart disease claims 647,457 yearly US average.

Cancer claims 599,108 yearly average in the US.

Black men killed by cops in the US is 8. Although a fact checking source said 13 last year.

I know we don’t listen to the ‘WHO’ anymore, but within the last week they issued a report that said symptomatic carriers do not spread the virus. Wait, what? Why in the frick are we wearing masks other than to virtue signal.

I’m ready for a mask burning mostly peaceful protest.

Just to be clear, that number is for unarmed black persons. Armed is a couple hundred, I believe.

I agree otherwise.

I can't burn what I've never worn.

Excuse the hijack:

This is what I’ve heard over and over including in MSM. Here’s a link even to a MSM article stating exactly what you quoted. USA Today

So can someone tell me the difference between that and these stats below... just looking to have my facts straight:

It’s funny how last year 13 unarmed folks were killed by police and there was no hooplah over it then this year 2 thugs (look at their criminal records) are killed by the police, whether justified or not, and the leftist media incites violence and then they go and burn down minority communities all across the country in the name of equality. Amazing how easily all these NPCs and NPC athletes are manipulated by the media.

ETA: sorry didn’t read pass OP and see this was just addressed... carry on
