Modern cars are amazingly safe, seriously they are engineering marvels. Also America has like what 350million people or some poo poo? America's actual gun problem is Democrats continuing to throw histrionic fits over them which do nothing but deliver political power to the GOP on a plate.

if the deaths were primarily correlated with miles traveled it definitely would have rebounded by now- we especially would have seen a more dramatic surge when OPEC nuked prices

"intellectual competence" how is that defined, and who defines it? also there are at least 10 different kinds of intelligence and prioritizing them would be horrible for me and the world, and me especially

Peanut President posted:Their fancy plane crashed and killed the pilot, iirc It's funnier than that. A lever that would tear the ship apart and kill everyone on board if switched too early and had no computer override because  was switched too early. Can't really blame the copilot for being stupid since none of the training or manuals mentioned this kill switch, it was only ever mentioned in one powerpoint years before he was hired.
