QuoteMIKE STOBBE | Associated Press ATLANTA — For the first time in almost half a century, homicide has fallen off the list of the nation's top 15 causes of death, bumped by a lung illness that often develops in elderly people who have choked on their food. The 2010 list, released by the government Wednesday, reflects at least two major trends: Murders are down, and deaths from certain diseases are on the rise as the population ages, health authorities said. Homicide was overtaken at No. 15 by pneumonitis, seen mainly in people 75 and older. It happens when food or vomit goes down the windpipe and causes deadly damage to the lungs. This is the first time since 1965 that homicide failed to make the list, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.Mike I love you, Shannon and Jim.

Well, they DO attribute it to more likely causes than attitudes towards guns, such as an ageing population. And then there's Roe vs Wade.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnRich 4 #19 January 17, 2012 Quote Homicide drops off US list of top causes of death Brady campaign and college physics professors hardest hit. Well shucks, how are we gonna drive up any momentum amidst the public to ban guns if people aren't killing each other with them? Hey, I've got an idea! How about we allow our guns to be trafficed to Mexican drug gangs, and then when they're used to kill a bunch of innocent Mexican citizens, or even some of our own, we can use that as an excuse to crack down on guns in America. It'll work, by gosh! Especially with the Attorney General behind it! Besides, the "Brady Campaign to Prevent Pneumonitis" is never going to bring in the big money like gun murders do...
