If you consider that there have been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraqi
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. is 80.6 per 100,000. That means that you are a bout 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.
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.
