Wyoming again leading US in paranoia, suicide

Neocolonialism is being lost on white people who have now become the martyrs of their own violence.

So, like South Dakota and because of unrestrained race hatred Wyoming is another red state that would prefer to die of cancers and suicides rather than expand Medicaid. Although South Dakota led the US in 2021 for the rate of increase in suicides with 48% the apparent failures of Republican agitprop reflects Wyoming's suicide rate as it climbs to over twice the national average and the highest in the United States.
In conservative Wyoming, it was long seen as taboo to draw a link between guns and suicide. There are a lot of theories behind why Wyoming, alongside several of its neighbors in the Mountain West, has had perennially high suicide rates. It's the least populated state in the nation, and there are huge gaps in care. People have to drive long distances on roads that often close for blizzards or wind. There has also long been a stigma around getting help: that "cowboy up" mentality of getting through the tough times. ['We don't want to be first place.' Wyoming tries to address high gun suicide rates]
Hey, if Tony Venhuizen wants to feed from the Qochtopus gravy train he has to prove he’s numbed to the misery, hopelessness and despair his father-in-law and political party have heaped on South Dakotans. 

Sociopathy is not the absence of God: it is the manifestation of creating miscreants in a species mutating as response to the evil being perpetrated by Republicans on the Earth. Chaos has clearly triumphed over the perceived capitalistic order perpetuated by consumerism and as humanity awaits a new normal definition of mentally ill, global warming is driving higher numbers of people to historically inhospitable climates. White retirees are sucking up land in The West and Montana has reached a million in population. 

It’s long past time to muster the political will to mandate a three year enrollment in military or police service at the age of eighteen and the civilian age of possession, operation and ownership of all firearms be limited to people 21 and older. Levy 100% excise taxes on the domestic sales of semi-automatic weapons then tag the revenue for Medicaid expansion so parents have the resources to address the devastating effects of Fox News on American youth.
