Ever notice you never or do NOT hear any of the second one?

The overused "enough fentanyl to kill X people" headline is just a bit clickbaity. When guns and ammo are seized do we ever get "with enough bullets to kill X people"?
---
I love how they come up with the numbers. "We've recovered enough fentanyl this year to kill 11 billion people, so the only reason anyone is alive."
This box has enough bullets to kill 300 people. 600 if they want to put their heads together and find a way.

Next time some idiot tries to point out that enough Fentanyl was seized to kill a billion people just remind them that the US produces enough bullets to shoot every single human on earth. Every year.
---
When people do these "Enough fentanyl to kill 20 billion people" headlines, I think "Wrong. Now do bullets." We make about 10 billion rounds per year, and likely have 100 billion stockpiled. Now there's a scary, and real, threat.

“It is like seizing a cache of 10,000 bullets from a criminal’s arsenal and saying there was enough ammo to kill everyone in town,” said Brandon del Pozo, a health and medicine professor at Brown University and former police chief of Burlington, Vermont. But those who are at risk of fatally overdosing are mainly those who purchase illicit drugs.
