#1 "You're superfluous to the economy (illegals are a lot cheaper). Why don't you go away and die and stop bothering us?"

#2 "If we can get people to talk about this," Beyer said, "we can find solutions."

Where is the data to support this contention?

I think mood altering illicit and prescription drugs are more likely the cause.

#3 Phil, I think a government and education industry that tell white men that they are inherently evil from the age of 5 on is the cause.

That would be the same 'government and education industry' that labels these men....'privileged' and pushes them to the back of the employment line.

#6 Wait till they get the idea to 'take some of the SOBs' with them. You think you have a problem with a very small community of Muslims in your midst, you ain't seen nothing if they get focused.

#7 Somehow a drug addled musician(?) is connected to working blue collar men? Someone needs to slow down their estrogen shots.
And yes I've lived in the area and was so happy to leave.

#11 Male-dominated industries such as construction, farming, fishing and forestry? What does that have to do with Chris Cornell of Soundgarden, a rocker? Any increase in the number of WOT vets committing suicide. Any link to unemployment? Any link to white-guy bashing?
