   That would indicate it's a cultural way of solving problems.  NOT a   
   problem with the RIGHT of the people TO KEEP and BEAR arms.  Are   
   Democrats and the CDC proposing that the Government destroy the cultural   
   roots of the BLACK AMERICANS? Or all Americans? To solve a problem   
   that's limited to someone's choice of life style.

   There you go, quit brushing reality under the rug because the pile of   
   dirt under the rug is like a small mountain.  Admit to the problem and   
   report the actual real numbers and apply some real science and quit   
   lying to us and the CDC  might actually do something for Americans   
   rather than against the Americans.

   That must be why Lori Lightfoot Mayor of Chicago accepts all the   
   Democrat Violence in Chicago, it's just normal life for people living   
   under Democrat lies.

   gun deaths has been around 30,000 for many years... that doesn't   
   actually leave many people dying as victims of violent crimes where guns   
   were the murder weapon, and you'd still have to deduct anyone shot by   
   police or home owners in self defense... because the criminals aren't   
   victims of crime when they're the ones committing them.   
      
   SO why do Democrats want assisted suicide when people seem to choose   
   self inflicted gunshots, and that number doesn't include all the people   
   that used drugs like Fentenyl to escape the reality of life.

   We can tell this is WOKE BS by the use of "Latinx" in the choice of   
   language..  yes Woke-ish like English and Latin is a language used to   
   express patterns of thought.   
      
   There is no such thing as an "investment" in a person or community,   
   people are not monetary items they have no monetary value, unless of   
   course you're a Woke Democrat who subscribes to one of the many cults   
   like the Cult of the Critical Race Theory believers who see a person as   
   a slave and an investment.
