These Things Have Killed More Humans Than Guns In History. by Explorers(op): 4:17pm On Feb 25, 2017
There were 31,672 firearm-related deaths in 2010.

Of these, 11,078 were homicides.

That means most gun-related deaths were accidents or suicides.

Far too many to be sure, but there are plenty of things that kill more people every year than guns.

Over 100,000 people die every year in alcohol-related incidents.

In 2005, there were over 43,000 fatalities resulting from drinking and driving.

Approximately 30% of suicides are triggered by alcohol use.

People will continue to die and people will continue to be born. It's nature's way of keeping the balance.

Oops did I think that out loud? Just look in the face of death and say "Not Today!" grin

Preventable medical errors account for 98,000 deaths every year in America.

An estimated 15,000,000 incidents of medical harm occur each year.

The Center For Disease Control does not include it in its lists of the leading causes of death in America (it would rank 6th).

It is estimated that between 660,000 to 1,000,000 people each year are killed by the diseases mosquitoes carry.

These diseases range from malaria to dengue and many are often fatal if not treated immediately.

Mosquitoes are present in all countries in the world, they are even known to survive in harsh environments like volcanic craters and arctic regions.

Mosquitoes have also been around for millions of years and are not going anywhere anytime soon.

Government.





In the 20th century alone, governments all over the world were responsible for the deaths of over 260,000,000 of their own people.

Leadership style, policies, and corruption

Stalin used government power to kill almost 50,000,000.

Hitler used government power to kill 11,000,000.

Mao used government power to kill between 30,000,000 and 70,000,000.

More people died as a result of their own respective governments than in all the wars of the 20th century.
