It is the madness of folly, to expect mercy from those who have refused to do justice; and even mercy, where conquest is the object, is only a trick of war; the cunning of the fox is as murderous as the violence of the wolf.

Food for Thought

Iraq vs. D.C.

I found this little interesting tidbit on a joke site. If the numbers are correct or not, this is quite funny. If the numbers really are correct, I wonder if the liberals would agree with the conclusion.

There have been an average of 160,000 troops in theater (Iraq) during the last 22 months, which has 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 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
