This is old, but still fitting:


Stats:

If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theater 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 for the same period.

That means that you are about 25% more likely to be shot and killed in the U.S. Capitol than you are in Iraq. (Washington D.C. has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation).

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