"If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in
the Iraq theater of operations during the past 22 months, and a total
of 2112 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 you are about 25 per cent more likely to be
shot and killed in the U.S. capital which has some of the strictest
gun control laws in the U.S. than you are in Iraq"
CONCLUSION: The U.S. should pull out of Washington.
