I received the following via e-mail. It is not my own work and I do not know who to credit it to, but thought it was worth sharing.
Thought for the day:
If you consider that there have been an average of 160,000 troops in
the Iraq theater of operations during the last 22 months, and a total of
2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000.
The rate in Washington D.C. (among others) is 80.6 per 100,000. That
means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in our
Nation's Capitol, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in
the nation, than you are in Iraq.
Conclusion: We should immediately pull out of Washington D.C
