DEATH in AMERICA
If you have morbid curiosity, this article will definitely pique your interest. We will talk about how many people die annually in the United States. What are the leading natural causes? What are the leading causes of death for people who die from something other than natural causes?
If you find this topic interesting, please continue reading and I think you will be somewhat fascinated by what I’ve learned.
Note: All the numbers listed in this article are approximate numbers.
How many people die annually in the United States? Between 3.0 and 3.5 million Americans die annually!
What is the leading cause of natural deaths? This is no surprise. The two leading causes of natural death are Heart Disease and Cancer. Another leading natural cause of death are Strokes. Approximately 166,000 people die annually from Strokes.
What are the leading causes of accidental deaths?
I found this category somewhat fascinating and surprising. For a long time, I knew a large number of Americans die from motor vehicle accidents every year. We clearly have thousands of morons on the road, who drive like idiots.
How many people die in motor vehicle accidents? The annual numbers is approximately 40,000. The states with the most motor vehicle deaths are Texas, California, and Florida. Mississippi and South Carolina usually have the largest number of per capita deaths from motor vehicle accidents.
The next category was somewhat of a surprise to me. A large number of deaths come from poisoning or overdoses. The majority of these are drug overdoses, specifically fentanyl and synthetic opioids.
If you thought the number of motor vehicle deaths was high, check out the number of the number of deaths from a drug overdose. The number is approximately 100,000 annually.
The other leading cause of unintentional deaths is another big surprise for me. That would be death from accidental falls. We’re not just talking about very old people, which is what you would expect. This category ranks just below motor vehicle accidents. I found this one hard to believe, but that is what the research is telling us.
HOMICIDES
This has always been a huge number throughout the history of America. In the last few years, the average number of homicides committed annually in America is around 22,000.
For those of you addicted to the Fox Propaganda Network, you should know that slightly more than approximately 99% of homicides are committed by Americans. We have no shortage of thugs and violent criminals in our country. Illegal immigrants commit approximately slightly less than 1% of homicides annually.
If you are not familiar with law enforcement, you should know the overwhelming majority of homicides are committed by someone who knows the victim. The killer is usually someone who thinks they will derive some kind of benefit, such as a huge life insurance policy or inheritance, from the death of someone they know very well.
A significant percentage of homicides are either husbands or boyfriends killing their wife or girlfriend, or wives or girlfriends, killing their husband or boyfriend. If they don’t commit the murder personally, they will hire a hitman to do the job.
The first thing a homicide detective investigates, is who benefits from the death of the victim, and/or, who thinks they will benefit from the murder.
The equation changes when there is a vicious, sick, serial killer who doesn’t know their victims. Serial killings are random occurrences where the victim has no relationship with the killer and that’s why they are often very difficult to solve.
Let’s return to who benefits from the murder. Very often, the detective will quickly learn the husband or wife, who killed their spouse, took out a major life insurance policy only 3-4 weeks before the murder. They are so stupid, they didn’t think the homicide detective would notice the motivating factor behind the murder.
Here’s an interesting case I’m familiar with and there are many just like it. The husband, in a middle-aged married couple, called 911 and screamed to the operator, his wife fell down a flight of stairs in their home and died. She died merely from falling down a flight of stairs?
Of course, the homicide detectives investigated and quickly learned the husband bought multiple life insurance policies on his wife, with a total value $4.6 million. What do you think the jury verdict was?
If you’re in law enforcement, you won’t be surprised by the next example. A wife calls 911 and screams that an intruder broke into their home while they were asleep in their bedroom and killed her husband.
If you’re experienced in law enforcement, your first thought would be, why did he only kill the husband. Why didn’t he also kill you, the only witness to the crime? Of course, we know the answer is, she hired a hitman to kill her husband, probably for life insurance or other financial benefits.
