If you consider that there have been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq 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 about 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

Pulling out + D.C. in the same sentence...it's clear that Clinton isn't in town anymore.





WOO, that's topical!
 
But if the US wasn't in Iraq, you'd have no firearm deaths.
More places with guns = more deaths.
Solution = Stop going to more places with guns.

Lol, read this rant about Detroit: http://www.moynihaninstitute.org/detroit2.htm

Actually klah that rant is fairly inaccurate and frankly crap, YES Detroit is going through some serious hard times and yes we have a violent culture, but he's forgetting all the good things in and around Detroit that make this a nice place to live, and damn his racism because most of the arabic people are some of the nicest folks you'll meet and they work darn hard, my only problem is they like to hit on my girlfriend 😛 They also make some dang fine food! And yes working in Detroit is no picnic but it's also an exciting place to be.....there is so much history here it's insane especially concerning the automotive industry, which brings up another big point, Wayne State University in downtown Detroit has worked with the Big 3 for years and years on car safety and development.

I'm not going to say Detroit is a great place to live, there is alot of poverty, crime, violence and etc, and slowly, VERY slowly things are beginning to turn around and if there is one notable trait that is apparent in many people who live in the metro Detroit area, it's that we have a sense of pride in our city and we're proud that we are hard-edge kinda folk, most people dont take sh!t around here, and if you talk sh!t about someone you better be able to back it up.....

I'm not trying to rant or be a jerk just giving my thoughts on the matter

Keep in mind, in Iraq, these are soldiers dying.

Who's gonna shoot at soldier in DC?

a soldier is aware of the risks of his job(and is more prepared), your average citizen does not believe he has the chance to die today.
