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.
For the same period of time, the firearm death rate in Washington DC is 80.6 per 100,000 citizens.
That means that you are about 30 percent more likely to be shot and killed in the Capitol of the United States
– which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation – than you are in Iraq.
Conclusion:
The United States should pull out of Washington, DC immediately!
