Yes it does have a stinger but it does not lose it when it stings you. It is a hornet and since it doesn't lose its stinger when it stings you it can sting you over and over again. I have ran over a hornet nest entrance and they attacked with full force and didn't let up until a minute or so later. I ran flinging my arms and smacking them but it didn't do much of anything at all and it hurts for hours unlike wasps that don't lose their stingers either.

When bumble bees sting do they die?

No, they don't. Unlike bumble bees, honey bees die soon after they sting because their stingers have barbs that make it impossible for the bee to remove it, and instead the venom sack pulls free of the body, mortally wounding the bee. Bumble bees do not have barbs on their stinger, making it possible for the bee to remove it's stinger, and sting repeatedly.
