STATISTICS NEVER LIE- AND THE CONCLUSION SEEMS LOGICAL TO ME.

Logic 101

An interesting letter in the Canadian Shooter Magazine this week, which I quote:

"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 2,112 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

That's hilarious! You're also correct in your logic.
