Enlightening Statistics

According to statistics from (icasualties.org) There have been 88 hostile fire deaths caused by firearms since the beginning of hostilities in Iraq.

The remainder of coalition deaths have been due to explosives or accidents.

What does this mean? If you consider that there have been an average of 160,000 troops in theater during the last 22 months, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000.

The rate in DC is 80.6 per 100,000. That means that you are more likely to be shot and killed in our Nation's Capitol, which has some of he strictest gun control laws in the nation, than if you are in Iraq.

The conclusion? Using logic, as reported on most TV news stations, we should immediately pull out of WASHINGTON, DC.
