catgate Posted July 30, 2007 Report Share Posted July 30, 2007 Subject: Interesting StatisticThere has been a monthly average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theatreof 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 personsfor the same period.That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed inthe U.S. Capital than you are in Iraq. Conclusion: The U.S. should pull out of Washington!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
