Interesting statistics

I just copied it and pasted it here, no verification. Gabby

An interesting letter in the Australian Shooter Magazine this week:

"If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq Theater of operations during the past 22 months, and a total of 2112 deaths, that gives a firearm death rate of 60 per 100,000 soldiers.

The firearm death rate in Washington, DC is 80.6 per 100,000 for the same period. That means you are about 25 per cent more likely to be shot and killed in the US capital which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the U..S., than you are in Iraq.

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

I couldn't agree more although the PC police may not approve.

Unfortunately I feel that D.C. has 'pulled out' of the U.S.!

Well Now you may have something there GB maybe we need to move DC back to Philly where it all started at.
