"I don't know how to save the world. I don't have the answers or The Answer. I hold no secret knowledge as to how to fix the mistakes of generations past and present. I only know that without compassion and respect for all Earth's inhabitants, none of us will survive - nor will we deserve to." Leonard Peltier

40,000 Americans kill themselves each year: Report
40,000 Americans kill themselves each year: Report
The Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California where about 1,600 suicides have occurred over the years.
Nearly 40,000 Americans kill themselves each year due to mental illness and other difficulties, a staggering death toll largely ignored by the country, according to a new report.
There's a suicide in the United States every 13 minutes, a health crisis that US officials and the public are almost complacent with, according a report published by USA Today on Friday.
Even as homicides in the US have fallen by half since 1991, the suicide rate keeps climbing, indicating that Americans are far more likely to kill themselves than each other, the report said.
About 90 percent of suicides occur among Americans suffering from mental illness, said the report, which is part of a series of stories by USA TODAY this year that explores the 10 million Americans with mental illness who languish without care and the human cost associated with it.
The report said that the US healthcare community remains puzzled on how to deal with suicides largely because the American public, as well as the federal government, have never been serious about finding a solution to this crisis.
"Is there the kind of concerted effort (for suicide) that's been made with HIV, with breast cancer, with Alzheimer's disease, with prostate cancer?" asks Christine Moutier, chief medical officer for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention. "There's never been that kind of concerted front."
Currently, suicide is the country's 10th-leading cause of death and the second-leading killer for people who are 15 to 34 years-old, according to statistics from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Every suicide costs the US approximately $1 million in medical and lost-work expenses and emotionally traumatizes an average of 10 other people, the CDC estimates.
On any given day we the people have some 300,000 veterans on the streets of America Every day, 22 veterans take their own lives. That's a suicide every 65 minutes. As shocking as the number is, it may actually be higher. WITH YOUR HELP WE CAN ASSIST MANY MANY MORE

Anyone is welcome to use their voice here at FREEDOM OR ANARCHY,Campaign of Conscience.THERE IS NO JUSTICE IN AMERICA FOR THOSE WITH OUT MONEY if you seek real change and the truth the first best way is to use the power of the human voice and unite the world in a common cause our own survival I believe that to meet the challenges of our times, human beings will have to develop a greater sense of universal responsibility. Each of us must learn to work not just for oneself, ones own family or ones nation, but for the benefit of all humankind. Universal responsibility is the key to human survival. It is the best foundation for world peace,“Never be afraid to raise your voice for honesty and truth and compassion against injustice and lying and greed. If people all over the world...would do this, it would change the earth.” Love and Peace to you all stand free and your ground feed another if you can let us the free call it LAWFUL REBELLION standing for what is right
