Interesting Observation

If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the
Iraq theatre of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of
2,112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000
Soldiers.


The firearm death rate in Washington D.C. Is 80.6 per 100,000 for the
same period.


That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in
the U.S. Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in
the nation, than you are in Iraq.



Conclusion: The U.S. Should pull out of Washington.
