Disturbing facts about America...

[quote]Mass shootings: The number of mass shootings in the US this year has already reached 307. There have been nearly as many US mass shootings as days in 2018.[/quote] [quote]R*pe: On average, there are 321,500 victims (age 12 or older) of r*pe and sexual assault each year in the United States. As of 1998, an estimated 17.7 million American women had been victims of attempted or completed r*pe. And as of 1998, 2.78 million men in the U.S. had been victims of attempted or completed r*pe.[/quote] [quote]Burglaries: According to the U.S. Department of Justice, 1.03 million home invasions occur each year. What time of day do most burglaries occur? Surprisingly, most burglaries occur between 10 AM and 3 PM. Many homes are empty during this time while people are at work.[/quote] [quote]Missing children and kidnapping: Every 40 seconds a child goes missing somewhere in the United States. There are more than 460,000 missing children each year. Of those missing children, almost 1,500 of them are kidnapped. A family abduction is the taking or concealing of a child under the age of 17 against the person’s legal rights. Family members abduct children in 1,230 of the total kidnapping cases. A stranger abduction, also known as a non-family abduction, is the result of a stranger taking or luring a child under the age of 17. Of the 1,435 kidnappings per year, 205 were non-family abductions. [/quote] [quote]Torture:[u] 500,000 in the United States and 100,000 in California alone. [/u]Center for Victims of Torture estimates that there are 500,000 torture survivors living in the United States. Studies estimate the incidence of torture ranges from 5-35% among refugees. By conservative estimates (5%), about 100,000 torture survivors live in California today. Torture can be physical, psychological, or sexual in nature. Often, individuals are tortured because of their identity (ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, etc.) or because of political affiliation, religion or activities to promote equal rights, labor rights, and other causes.[/quote] What is wrong with us, we need a restart. Humanity is doomed and I think we all know this. And this is only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to our problems as a species. So goddamn sad man. I know this will never happen, but if we could just all love and respect each other and put aside our differences then the world would be so much better. But that's only a childish fantasy. Welcome to America, such a beautiful place am I right? Edit: This is just the USA as well, don't even want to know how bad this shit is if you add it all up from other countries in the world.

  • "Muh 300+ mass shootings" is a complete load brought to you by people who play so fast and loose with what counts as a "mass shooting" its ridiculous anybody would parrot this nonsense. Really, there's 300+ mass shootings but the media never even mentions them? Really? 300+ mass shootings, like, 300+ sandy hooks?
