Between 2016 and 2021 there were 5,287 firearm deaths in Colorado with a combined age-adjusted rate of 15.0 deaths per 100,000 population. The number of firearm injury deaths was greater than deaths due to motor vehicle crashes, opioid overdoses, colon cancer, and influenza combined. Sadly, these firearms casualty counts in the Centennial State will only increase. By contrast, Canada with a 40m population suffered a grand total of 297 firearms-related homicides in 2021.

"You don't need no gun control, you know what you need? We need some bullet control. Men, we need to control the bullets, that's right. I think all bullets should cost five thousand dollars ... five thousand dollars per bullet ... You know why? Cause if a bullet cost five thousand dollars there would be no more innocent bystanders.

Yeah! Every time somebody get shut we'd say, Damn, he must have done something ... ----, he's got fifty thousand dollars worth of bullets in his ass.'

And people would think before they killed somebody if a bullet cost five thousand dollars. Man I would blow your ------- head off ... if I could afford it.' I'm gonna get me another job, I'm going to start saving some money, and you're a dead man. You'd better hope I can't get no bullets on layaway.'

So even if you get shot by a stray bullet, you wouldn't have to go to no doctor to get it taken out. Whoever shot you would take their bullet back, like "I believe you got my property."

You can't buy a pack of cigarettes out of a vending machine and those take years to kill you. Why in the world would anyone think ammo in a vending machine is a good idea. I would be interested to see the stats on who is actually purchasing this product.
