2017 US total deaths ..... 2,813,503

2018 US total deaths ..... 2,839,205

2019 US total deaths ......2,870,436


Looks like a little over 1 % growth rate


I say we will not exceed ........2,909,010 total deaths for 2020 .........factoring in the normal growth rate


What say you ?

Im willing to put money on it

I betcha they will have cleaner butts this year though.

Unless they die from lack of tp

Alternative TP joke.

Bear is doing his thing in the woods and notices a rabbit with some pellets behind it trying to play it cool just in case the bear hasn't noticed him.

Bear: Hey rabbit, do you ever have poop stick to your fur?
Rabbit: No that never happens to me!
Bear: Good.
as he grabs the rabbit by the ears and wipes with his fur.

Anti, I would agree with you, but I expect the suicide rate to skyrocket in the coming months as a symptom of the virus driven economy.

Yes , if i lose this bet it will be because of this and not the Veeeeeruss

Any takers ?

Loser pays 50 bucks to the Tman fund

WHO handles the Tman fund?

The Trapperman Defense fund committee for the defense fund, or the Discretionary Fund committee for the Discretionary fund. Two funds for two different purposes.

The next problem will be getting an honest, accurate # for 2020.

The other day on the radio, they said calls to the suicide hotline have jumped significantly. I think thry said there was a 300% increase in calls in March.

Since everything is shut down there has to be a huge drop in auto accidents

$50 for the Tman fund? That's a "no brainer"....I'll take that bet and I sincerely hope I lose!

According to our fearless leader the suicide rate is about to explode since we are still hunkering down.

The murder rate in Chicago dropped 29 percent!!! Covids gonna save that city yet.

Nice !


Now , we hurry up and wait..............

Unfortunately the suicide rate will be significantly higher in the months and years ahead! The scuttling of our economy is going to break a lot of people IMO!

You are depending on a 1.34% increase so it could go either way. For a lousy $50 I'm not at all worried. It will go to a good cause. 2017 saw a 2.46% increase. 2015 saw a 4.1% increase. First you have LIES. Then you have (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman) LIES. Then you have statistics. I hope you win this bet just to satisfy your over inflated ego.

I'm 70 yrs old with underlying lung condition. My 20 yr old son just walked out the door to go to his job as a cashier at Safeway. If I lose this bet I will have $50 already set aside just incase I don't win the lottery but the Creepin Crud gets me.

We have a few generations that can’t handle the word “no” that are not prepared for any hard times ahead it could be a more tragic outcome then this virus itself in the future.
