A friend sent me this ...

Considering the fact 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 results in a firearm death rate of 60 per
100,000.

The rate in Washington D.C. is 80.6 firearm deaths per 100,000.
That means that you are 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.
