According to icasualties.org , there have been 88 hostile deaths
caused by firearms since the beginning of hostilities in Iraq. The
remainder of coalition deaths have been due to explosives or
accidents.

Considering that there have been on average 160,000 troops in
theater during the last 22 months, there has been a firearm death rate
of 60 per 100,000. The rate in DC is 80.6 per 100,000. You are more
likely to be shot and killed in our Nation's Capital, which has some
of the strictest gun control laws in the nation, than in Iraq.

The conclusion? The U.S. should immediately pull out of WASHINGTON,
D.C.

Don't discourage him. Getting the US out of Washington is a _great_ idea.

Of course gun control works. Sight picture, breath control and
squeeze are critical portions of gun control. With out them, you wont
be able to shoot for ****.
