In other news, fully legalizing marriage
was correlated with a 7% average drop in suicide attempts by high school students, and twice that decrease for gay and lesbian students in particular. For this conversation, I'm going to assume that it's a causative link.
Pursuant to full consideration of relative hazard, let's take a quick look at the figures. Wikipedia states that there were over 5,000 teenage suicides in the United States in 2014. The 2015 nationwide adoption of full marriage rights has saved, roughly, 700 lives among teenagers over the past two years, and prevented a larger number of attempted suicides, which is itself good.
That means that despite massive strides, there is more than one 9/11-level death from suicide
among teenagers alone in the USA. Annual deaths attributable to all kinds of terrorism in the USA remain at sub-cow levels. Hell, solar power kills more people than terrorism of all types.
So I guess this is a reminder that whenever someone tells you they're trying to stop terrorism (unless they're continuing an existing program), what they're actually saying is that they want to use terrorism to get you do do something for them.
