An interesting factoid... 

Think about this one...

There have been an average of 160,000 troops in theater in Iraq during the last 22 months.  They have had a death rate of 60 per 100,000 people from firearms.

The rate in Washington DC is 80.6 killed by firearms per 100,000 people. 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.

Conclusion: We should immediately pull out of Washington.
