Some Interesting Statistics....

[Phantom Blooper]

According to 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 has 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 Washington 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 the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq.

The conclusion?

We should immediately pull out of WASHINGTON, DC!!!

Or we should abolish, "gun control"!

The real reason in Iraq is that the enemy avoids going head to head with us because they will lose. That's the fight we want!

In D.C. the same would be true if everyone packed. The punks would back off.

I just LOVE rational judgement....

Or spend a few billion giving everone in DC body armor? And every head of household will also be issued a Mk19!

[HardJedi]

Hmnnn, pulling out of DC is not a bad Idea. :D

There is a movement to remove the law baring handgun ownership in DC. The Bradey's will have to a more friendly area; oh, that's right, there isn't any.
