U.S. traffic deaths reached a 16-year high in 2021, according to government estimates


that's terrible, but what does that have to do with mass shootings?

so just the classic, lazy whataboutism then? talk about being disingenuous. cars are heavily regulated, from drivers licenses to traffic rules, their primary purpose is NOT to kill, and the industry spends billions each year to develop systems and features to make them LESS lethal. they are a necessary evil in a modern society. only fundamentally stupid or dishonest people would consider cars a valid analogy, trying to deflect from an issue that is exclusive to america, while traffic deaths are a problem everywhere in the world. foh with that bs.

mass shootings are a controversial political issue, traffic deaths aren't. hope this helps, hack.

You're right, politicians don't care about deaths, only agenda.

close but not quite - i should have known you aren't quite intelligent enough to understand, so here's the crayon version, just for you, my very "special" friend: there is no big political disagreement about traffic deaths in general. basically everyone supports measures to prevent them, and is fine with rules and regulations to achieve that goal - no matter how much that might restrict their "freedom" to drive past schools at 100 mph .

could you make it any more obvious that you're just interested in deflections and whataboutisms?
