"Spicer: Safety of Americans comes first" BULLSHIT!

if they really cared about our lives...

approximately 245,000 deaths in the U.S...were attributable to low levels of education, 176,000 to racial segregation, 162,000 to low social support, 133,000 to individual-level poverty, 119,000 to income inequality, and 39,000 to area-level poverty. Overall, 4.5% of U.S. deaths were found to be attributable to poverty—midway between previous estimates of 6% and 2.3%.




According to Justice and State Department data, over 10,000 Americans are killed by gun violence every year. Since 9/11, the number of U.S. citizens killed in terrorist attacks each year has never surpassed 75.... while the U.S. pours trillions of dollars into protecting its citizens from terrorism, Congress is unwilling to take even the most minor steps to eradicate gun violence.

Americans on American soil are killed by terrorists so they can institute martial law and start bombing the ME.

Oh no, our safety will NEVER be on their minds, NEVER.
