According to Australian Shooter Magazine this week, "if you consider that there have been 160,000 troops through 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, D.C. for the same period is 80.6 per 100,000 people. That means that you are 25% more likely to be shot and killed in the nation's capitol, which has some of the strictest gun laws in the country, than you are in Iraq.
Conclusion
The U.S. should pull out of Washington.
