AI because:

Last fiscal year (2024, running from October 2023 to September 2024), U.S. Customs and Border Protection seized 43 pounds of fentanyl at the U.S.-Canada border. Fentanyl is extremely potent, with a lethal dose estimated at around 2 milligrams for an average adult. To calculate the potential number of deaths:

43 pounds = 19,504 grams (since 1 pound = 453.59 grams).

19,504 grams = 19,504,000 milligrams (since 1 gram = 1,000 milligrams).

Dividing by 2 milligrams per lethal dose: 19,504,000 mg ÷ 2 mg = 9,752,000 potential deaths.

Thus, the 43 pounds of fentanyl seized from Canada last fiscal year could theoretically kill approximately 9.75 million people, assuming each lethal dose is 2 milligrams and all of it reached users in fatal amounts. This figure aligns with claims circulating in public discourse, though real-world outcomes depend on factors like distribution, purity, and intervention efforts. For context, this is a tiny fraction of the 21,889 pounds seized nationwide, with 96.6% coming from Mexico.

Now ask it to determine the total number of deaths due to fentanyl, regardless of origin or border crossed, and then give the total number of pounds of fentanyl entering or produced in the US and do the maths.

Can you then ask it how many bullets the US produces and how many shots it takes on average to kill a person?

Annual Bullet Production in the United States

Estimating the exact number of bullets (small arms ammunition) produced in the U.S. each year is tricky because comprehensive, up-to-date public data from manufacturers is limited, and production figures often blend commercial and military outputs. However, based on available industry insights and historical trends, we can piece together a reasonable estimate as of March 5, 2025.

Industry Estimates: The National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF), which tracks firearms and ammunition trends, reported that U.S. manufacturers produced approximately 8.7 billion rounds of ammunition in 2020, a figure cited widely during the pandemic-driven ammo surge. This includes all calibers (handgun, rifle, shotgun, etc.) for civilian, law enforcement, and some military use. Production capacity has since expanded to meet demand, with companies like Vista Outdoor (owner of Federal, CCI, and Speer) and Olin Corporation (Winchester) ramping up output.

Military Production: The U.S. Army’s Lake City Army Ammunition Plant, a key supplier of military small arms ammo (e.g., 5.56mm, 7.62mm), has a capacity of about 1.2 to 1.5 billion rounds annually, per a 2023 Army statement. During wartime or high demand (like FY 2024, with 21,889 pounds of fentanyl seized indicating heightened border security), this can scale up. Total military production, including other facilities, likely adds 2–3 billion rounds yearly, separate from or overlapping with commercial figures.

Current Trends: Ammo demand spiked in 2020–2021 due to civil unrest, elections, and new gun ownership (9 million new owners in 2020 alone, per NSSF). While it’s cooled slightly, 2024 production likely exceeds 2020’s 8.7 billion due to sustained civilian demand and export growth (e.g., Ukraine aid). A 2013 WIRED estimate of 10 billion rounds annually is often cited, and with capacity increases, experts like John Pike of GlobalSecurity.org suggest 10–12 billion rounds as plausible for 2024.

Best Estimate: Accounting for commercial (8–10 billion) and military (2–3 billion) production, the U.S. likely produces 10–12 billion bullets annually as of 2025. This aligns with the NSSF’s 2020 baseline, adjusted for growth and anecdotal reports from ammo retailers facing shortages into 2024.

Average Number of Shots to Kill a Person

The number of shots required to kill a person varies widely depending on context—combat, crime, or medical outcomes—and is influenced by factors like bullet caliber, shot placement, distance, and victim resilience. There’s no universal “average,” but we can derive estimates from military and civilian data.

Military Context:

Vietnam War: Historical data suggests U.S. forces expended 50,000 rounds of M-16 ammo (5.56mm) per enemy killed, per a 1970s Department of Defense analysis. This includes suppressive fire, training, and missed shots, not direct hits. Actual hits-to-kill likely ranged from 1–3 shots, per wound ballistics studies.

Iraq/Afghanistan: Researcher John Pike estimated 250,000 small-caliber rounds per insurgent killed, including training and combat. In direct engagements, studies like the 2006 Joint Special Operations University report suggest 2–5 hits to incapacitate, with 1–3 fatal if vital areas (head, chest) are struck.

Wound Ballistics: Per Dr. Martin Fackler’s research, 80% of body shots are non-fatal; a single well-placed rifle round (e.g., 5.56mm) to the heart or brain can kill instantly, while multiple peripheral hits may not.

Civilian/Criminal Context:

Boston Study (2018): A JAMA Network Open study of 2010–2014 shootings found that caliber size mattered—larger rounds (.40, .45) increased lethality vs. 9mm. Most shootings involved 1–2 shots, with a single hit fatal in 20–40% of cases, depending on placement (e.g., head shots: 90% fatal; torso: 50%).

FBI Data: In police shootings, officers fire an average of 2–5 rounds per incident, with 1–2 hits often sufficient to kill if center-mass or headshots, per 2022 FBI stats. Criminal shootings show similar patterns, though accuracy is lower.

Anecdotal Cases: Survivors like Kenny Vaughan (shot 20 times, 1995) or Sean Guzman (13 shots, 2006) highlight variability—most shots missed vital organs. Conversely, a single .22 caliber to the brain can kill instantly.

General Lethality: The CDC’s 2022 data shows 48,204 firearm deaths from 19,651 homicides and 27,032 suicides. Homicides often involve 1–3 shots (per autopsy studies), with a 20–25% fatality rate per shooting incident (Everytown Research). Suicides are near-100% fatal with one headshot.

Best Estimate: In direct engagements (combat or crime), it takes 1–3 shots on average to kill a person, assuming at least one hits a vital area (head, heart, major arteries). In broader military contexts, including misses and suppressive fire, the ratio balloons to tens or hundreds of thousands of rounds per death. For a practical average across all scenarios:

Direct Hits: 1–3 shots, with 1 often enough if perfectly placed.

Real-World Incidents: 2–5 shots fired, 1–2 hitting, based on police and criminal data.

Summary

U.S. Bullet Production: 10–12 billion rounds annually.

Shots to Kill: 1–3 direct hits on average in controlled scenarios; vastly more when factoring in combat inefficiencies.

These figures reflect both the scale of U.S. ammo output and the messy reality of firearm lethality, where precision trumps volume.

So enough to kill 4-12 billion people. This is how stupid the fentanyl calculation argument is.

There's enough salt in the ocean to kill about 6.2 x10^17 people with salt poisoning. Close all the harbors!

The AI copy/paste didn't correct anything that was posted?🤔

🚨***AI Warning***🚨

1. The one reporter pressing her on Canada’s fentanyl being less than 1% and her answer was that it’s enough to kill 4.8 million people. 

I don't know the intention of relaying it’s enough to kill 4.8 million people. Was it that it was a ridiculous claim, was it that 4.8 was too high, too low? 

AI says 9.752M potential deaths 

2. The fentanyl calculation argument is stupid.

Comparison: Fentanyl kills more people annually (55,000–60,000) than guns (47,000–50,000), a gap of roughly 5,000–10,000 deaths. Fentanyl’s toll is concentrated in overdoses, while gun deaths split across intentional (homicide/suicide) and accidental causes.

Comparison: Fentanyl’s potential lethal units (16.3–27.6 billion doses) exceed bullet production (10–12 billion rounds) by 1.5–2.5 times in sheer numbers. However, bullets are discrete, single-use items, while fentanyl’s “doses” depend on distribution and purity—much seized fentanyl is diluted or never reaches users.

Comparison: Fentanyl’s per-unit lethality (1 dose = 1 potential death) is more efficient than bullets (1–3 shots = 1 death), but its impact requires ingestion and precise dosing, while bullets deliver immediate physical trauma. Fentanyl’s seized quantity alone could kill ~5 million, vs. ~50,000 for guns’ annual toll, highlighting fentanyl’s unrealized potential vs. guns’ realized use.

Key Takeaways

Deadliness: Fentanyl edges out guns in annual deaths (by ~10–20%), despite guns’ broader cultural presence.

Scale: Fentanyl’s potential lethality (billions of doses) dwarfs bullets produced, but its real impact is curtailed by distribution and intervention.

Efficiency: Fentanyl kills with one dose; guns need 1–3 hits, making fentanyl theoretically more “efficient” per unit, though less predictable in practice.

Guns and fentanyl represent distinct threats: guns as tools of intentional violence, fentanyl as a stealthy overdose killer. Their comparison hinges on realized harm (close) vs. theoretical destruction (fentanyl wins). Which is “worse” depends on whether you prioritize body count, intent, or untapped danger.

3. (Especially since) the US exported more drugs and guns to Canada than they exported to the US.

Drugs: No

Guns: Yes

Excuse me? I think you meant fentanyl? I know we were discussing fentanyl and the COOTWH administration’s press officer but I specifically stated “drugs” and it remains that her comment in full context is stupid, just like complaining about the northern border. Canada is not the problem. If anything, Canada has problems with the US.

Conclusion

The United States exports more drugs and guns overall to Canada than Canada does to the U.S. The U.S. floods Canada with illegal firearms (tens of thousands annually, driving 85–90% of crime guns), outweighing Canada’s small fentanyl exports (43 pounds seized vs. 10.8 pounds northward). In terms of societal impact—gun violence in Canada vs. overdose deaths in the U.S.—the U.S.’s gun exports have a far greater footprint than Canada’s drug contributions, making the U.S. the dominant exporter in this bilateral exchange. Data gaps (e.g., undetected amounts) limit precision, but the trend is clear: guns south-to-north dwarf drugs north-to-south.

No, excuse me. I see what happened . My previous inquiries regarding fentanyl brought it into the US/ Canada drug and guns export question automatically:

(My apologies, Get Right, I know I'm about to lose you here)

"To determine which country, the United States or Canada, exports more drugs and guns to the other, we’ll examine the available data on illicit drug trafficking (specifically fentanyl, given its prominence) and illegal firearms flows between the two nations, focusing on FY 2024 (October 2023–September 2024) where possible, as of March 5, 2025.

DE4173 said:

To compare guns and fentanyl in the U.S., I’ll focus on key metrics based on your prior questions: deaths caused, quantities involved (bullets vs. pounds of fentanyl), and their potential lethality, using the latest FY 2024 data where possible (October 2023–September 2024, adjusted to March 5, 2025 context). This builds on the figures already calculated—fentanyl deaths and pounds, bullet production, and shots-to-kill—while framing them side by side for clarity.

1. Deaths Caused

Fentanyl: Approximately 55,000–60,000 deaths in FY 2024, based on provisional CDC data showing a decline to 57,997 synthetic opioid deaths (mostly fentanyl) for the 12 months ending August 2024, adjusted for fiscal overlap. This reflects overdoses from all sources, regardless of origin.

Guns: For FY 2024, exact figures are pending, but calendar year 2022 (CDC) provides a baseline: 48,204 firearm deaths, split into 19,651 homicides, 27,032 suicides, and 1,521 unintentional/legal intervention deaths. Provisional 2023 data shows a slight rise (e.g., 20,958 homicides per Gun Violence Archive), but 2024 trends suggest stabilization or a minor drop (e.g., 10% homicide decline in some cities, per Axios). Estimating FY 2024 at 47,000–50,000 deaths is reasonable, pending final data.

Comparison: Fentanyl kills more people annually (55,000–60,000) than guns (47,000–50,000), a gap of roughly 5,000–10,000 deaths. Fentanyl’s toll is concentrated in overdoses, while gun deaths split across intentional (homicide/suicide) and accidental causes.

2. Quantities Involved

Fentanyl: Total entering/produced in the U.S. in FY 2024 is 71,889–121,889 pounds, including 21,889 pounds seized (CBP) and an estimated 50,000–100,000 pounds undetected. Each pound (453,590 mg) could theoretically yield 226,795 lethal doses (at 2 mg each), so 71,889 pounds = ~16.3 billion doses, and 121,889 pounds = ~27.6 billion doses.

Bullets: U.S. production is 10–12 billion rounds annually, covering civilian and military small arms ammo (NSSF, Lake City estimates). This excludes imports (minor) and stockpiles, focusing on new output.

Comparison: Fentanyl’s potential lethal units (16.3–27.6 billion doses) exceed bullet production (10–12 billion rounds) by 1.5–2.5 times in sheer numbers. However, bullets are discrete, single-use items, while fentanyl’s “doses” depend on distribution and purity—much seized fentanyl is diluted or never reaches users.

3. Lethality Potential

Fentanyl per Unit: A 2 mg dose is lethal to an average adult (DEA estimate), though overdoses often involve higher amounts (e.g., 5–10 mg) due to tolerance or mixing. The 21,889 pounds seized in FY 2024 could kill ~4.97 million people if perfectly distributed (21,889 × 226,795 doses), far exceeding actual deaths (55,000–60,000), showing most doesn’t reach fatal circulation.

Bullets per Unit: It takes 1–3 shots to kill in direct hits (military/civilian data), with 1 often sufficient for vital areas (e.g., headshot: 90% fatal). The 10–12 billion rounds produced could theoretically kill 3.3–12 billion people if every shot hit fatally, but real-world accuracy (e.g., 20–25% fatality per shooting incident) limits this to the 47,000–50,000 actual deaths.

Comparison: Fentanyl’s per-unit lethality (1 dose = 1 potential death) is more efficient than bullets (1–3 shots = 1 death), but its impact requires ingestion and precise dosing, while bullets deliver immediate physical trauma. Fentanyl’s seized quantity alone could kill ~5 million, vs. ~50,000 for guns’ annual toll, highlighting fentanyl’s unrealized potential vs. guns’ realized use.

4. Broader Context

Availability: Guns are legal, with ~400 million in civilian hands (NSSF 2023 estimate), and ammo production (10–12 billion rounds) supports widespread use. Fentanyl is illicit, with 71,889–121,889 pounds smuggled or produced illegally, mostly via Mexico (96.6% of seizures).

Intent: Gun deaths include deliberate acts (homicides: ~20,000; suicides: ~27,000), while fentanyl deaths are largely unintentional overdoses (55,000–60,000), though some involve reckless distribution (e.g., dealers lacing drugs).

Societal Reach: Guns kill across demographics, with peaks in urban violence (homicides) and rural suicides. Fentanyl hits drug users hardest, with 70% of 2023 overdose deaths involving synthetic opioids (CDC), often polydrug cases.

Ask the same questions posed in a slightly different way or wording and do you get a different answer?

If I post on the interwebs a non-scholarly paper on the trillion, zillion, million pounds of fentanyl that enters Canada from the US, does AI include it in its analysis? The lack of fully cited sources is problematic, yes?

AI = do your own research. I won’t and don’t read that blather. Nice discussion though.

I can't decide weather this thread is about a felon, a drug make popular poor economic conditions and hopelessness, or writing Haiku.  I was hoping to see a parade.  In cologne, Germany. 

I was gone for a week and now every page is littered with AI nonsense that nobody's gonna read.

So true.  Best to ignore that crap as much as possible.

Yes, Johnson is the epitome of spineless.

Sure bud. How about using your brain instead of something an app spits out at you? Nobody wants to read a wall of text.

I mean, I don't know the answers to all the questions asked. How is it different than me googling or going to twitter, threads, instagram, etc., Are those people not using their brains and instead copying/pasting what an app spits out at them?

I'm trying to understand, honestly. ✌️

The US is a threat to the world:

” Two of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky’s political rivals have confirmed that they have been in contact with members of US President Donald Trump’s entourage following a Politico report published on Thursday in which an alleged bid to remove Zelensky from office was revealed.”


How can this happen in a ”democracy”. @DE4173 can you ask chatgpt

Chat GPT is so stupid.
when will easter fall on 4/21?

Easter will fall on April 21st in 2024. The date of Easter changes every year, as it's determined by the first Sunday after the first full moon following the vernal equinox. In 2024, that works out to April 21st!

No it won't/didn't!
