INTERESTING STATISTIC

Regardless of where you stand on the issue of the U.S.
involvement in Iraq, here's a sobering statistic:

There has been a monthly average of 160,000 troops
in the Iraq theatre of operations during the last 22 months,
and a total of 2,112 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 persons for the same period.

That means that you are about 25% more likely to
be shot and killed in the U.S. Capital than you are in Iraq.




Conclusion: The U.S. should pull out of Washington

wait, wait... maybe because of all of this sectarian violence in DC, we should sense a surge of troops to overtake the current government...























... what don't you want the revolution to come?

Troops.
