Pandemic brought highest rates of teen homicide, young adult suicide since 2001

I'm sure the pandemic was a contributing factor to a wide range of mental health disorders, especially anxiety-related issues. I myself felt it, especially in the 1st year, pre-vaccine. Any catastrophic event on a global scale is going to increase depression, etc.

I think the response was suitable to the situation, and admirable in many ways. As for the rise in suicides, that is likely the result of many factors. Have you seen the list of current existential threats? Plagues, AI, environmental collapse, a burning planet, nuclear war.

 

Lol, that was after months of you trying to bet me on suicides overall claiming that they would increase in 2020. Out first interaction on the subject was in July 2020, 6 full months before the post you linked, which had absolutely nothing to do with me or our interaction. Seriously, get some help.

 

I have a proposal: you point out a specific thing that I said that was wrong. Let me know when you can. Show the post where I said something verifiably false. Heck, find me a post where I specifically even talked about teen suicides at all in relation to the pandemic. Good luck.

Don't make your inability to handle how wrong you were about suicides into everybody else's problem as a deflection. Man up and show your work. I'll be waiting (not really).

 

At the risk of throwing more fuel on the fire, I found the proposed bet.

Coronavirus in the United States - news and thoughts

 

Okay, so you can't. Thanks.

 

That is odd. I notice the word teen doesn't appear in that post as a qualifier (or in any other capacity). And yet, now is claiming that he was talking about teens. Almost like he is a liar.

 

Okay, so you called me out, attributed false positions to me, and now admit it. I grant, that is a first step and appreciated when caught dead to rights, you chose to not dig further this time. Now, please either provide the specific post to which you are referring on those other issues or stop doing exactly what you got caught doing to me on this thread again (attributing a false position and asking me to apologize for something that you lied about).

 

LOL! The OP brings up my name out of nowhere based on an issue we had literally years ago, spent the thread lying about me, and I'm the one with the addictive personality for responding. BTW, given the number of ratings I get from you (including on this thread), pretty obvious you were lying about blocking me.

 

Oh you’re blocked alright. Occasionally you’re tripe shows up as the last post and I see it. I shake my head and sigh.

 

I wouldn't have it any other way brother.

 

Put it this way: if for some crazy reason I was asked to speak at your funeral … I’d probably slip it in at some point.

 

I'm surprised by all the hate for MD. There's only one poster acting like an insufferable child and it isn't MD.

 

You are formally invited. Note that I have my Gator Country log in credentials tattooed behind my left ear. The purpose being whoever officiates my funeral keeps it a secret and posts under my name. I want to be a pain to the libs from the grave. Its like the Santa Clause for message boards. Whoever finds that tattoo has to become Tilly.

 

Responding to the person you claim is blocked. Bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see how that works out for him.

 

Man that's about the funniest thing I've seen here since your election bet where you had to leave the board for a month.
