The seas, lakes and oceans are now pluming deadly hydrogen sulfide and suffocating methane. Hydrogen sulfide is a highly toxic water-soluble heavier-than-air gas and will accumulate in low-lying areas. Methane is slightly more buoyant than normal air and so will be all around, but will tend to contaminate our atmosphere from the top down. These gases are sickening and killing oxygen-using life all around the world, including human life, as our atmosphere is increasingly poisoned. Because both gases are highly flammable and because our entire civilization is built around fire and flammable fuels, this is leading to more fires and explosions. This is an extinction level event and will likely decimate both the biosphere and human population and it is debatable whether humankind can survive this event.
A. More fires and more explosions, especially along the coasts, but everywhere generally.
B. Many more animal die-offs, of all kinds, and especially oceanic species.
C. More multiples of people will be found dead in their homes, as if they'd dropped dead.
D. More corpses found in low-lying areas, all over the world.
E. More unusual vehicular accidents.
F. Improved unemployment numbers as people die off.

Despite media reports suggesting that the crater was left behind by a meteorite strike, the team says the giant circle is the result of a meltwater lake collapsing under the surface - and it’s a signal that the coldest place on Earth might be far less stable than we thought."

US Bureau of Justice report: Two-thirds of arrest related deaths were intentional killings by police
https://www.sott.net/article/336958-US-Bureau-of-Justice-report-Two-thirds-of-arrest-related-deaths-were-intentional-killings-by-police
From June 2015 through May 2016, approximately 1,900 people died amid encounters with US law enforcement officers, the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) said in a new report, "Arrest-Related Deaths Program Redesign Study, 2015-2016: Preliminary Findings."
Of those 1,900 deaths, about 1,200 of them could be considered homicides, in which people were intentionally killed by officers, according to an analysis of the report by FiveThirtyEight.com. The rest were deaths that resulted from accidents, natural causes, or, mostly, suicides during a police encounter, the BJS estimated. [more]
