Statistics and Conclusion
If you consider that there has been an average of 160,000 troops in the Iraq theatre 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, which has some of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than you are in Iraq.
Conclusion: The U.S. should pull out of Washington immediately

Nagarjuna,
I don't have the stats, but those are surely annual figures for Washington D.C. and monthly figures for our troops in Iraq. If I am right, it is an invalid comparison -- not that Wash D.C. isn't a dangerous place to walk around in or introduce legislation in.
