Fact vs Make Believe Fact!!
Gary K.

Fact:
Each of the 15,971 non-driving people killed in 2005 in auto accidents were duly reported in newspapers and on TV.
If you wished,with little effort,you could look-up their names and home towns.

If you wished, you could find the names and hometowns of everyone that has died in an auto accident over the last 100 years or so!!

Make Believe:
Antis claim that about 50,000 deaths each year are "caused" by SHS.

Fact:
If these deaths were real and provable, the ACS,ALA,AHA,and CFTFK would send out press releases on each and every one of them and newspapers and TV would happily report the names and hometowns of the deceased.

Fact:
Nowhere do you see or hear of the names of the so-called deaths "caused" by SHS.
In fact, they can not be proven to exist!!
