Gun Control NEVER works

FOOD FOR THOUGHT
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 per month.
The monthly death 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 if you are a soldier in Iraq.
Conclusion:
We should immediately pull out of Washington, D.C.
