And what we Google, and what the media reports.
It is an interesting graph that is making the rounds on the internets right now thanks to a Tweet from Bill Gates.

If it bleeds it leads. Also consider that the MSM which includes nearly all of the stats shown, also have an agenda that mirrors the so called "progressive" or Democrat Left political position

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.
Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I'd like to see a chart showing some sort of age adjusted metric. Many of the "under reported" causes of death are things that are more likely to kill us as we get older which means we (somewhat accurately) file those causes of death away as inevitable death by old age.

I want to go peacefully, in my sleep like grandpa did.
Not screaming and yelling in terror like the passengers in his car.

So it's not terrorists sneaking across the border to kill us all?

If tax cuts and the end of net neutrality didn't kill me, nothing can.
