Interesting statistics Regardless of where you stand on the issue of the
U.S involvement in Iraq, here's a sobering statistic. There has been a
monthly average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theatre of operations
during the last 22 months, and a total of 2,867 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
persons for the same period. That means that you are about 25% more
likely to be shot and killed in the U.S. Capital than you
are in Iraq.
Conclusion: The U.S. should pull out of Washington.
