Does anyone know where to find data like that? That would be a better comparison. what is the total death rate from accidents in the united states of men between the ages of 18 and 30 per year…versus death rate of men in the service anywhere..

If this were not the case, the Iraq death rate would be much, much higher. I don't think the average citizen sports body armor. Stats aren't reflective of reality.

The Iraq G.I. firearm death rate of 60/100,00 is calculated per month... Washington D.C.'s is calculated per year. And... Washington's statistic is 30/100,000 not 80 per 100,000. The real facts are: Iraq: 720 deaths per 100,000 per year Washington D.C.: 31 per 100,000 per year First of all, I can’t believe people take facts on the surface.

First of all, the Iraq firearm death rate of 60 is calculated per month. Washington D.C.'s rate of 80 is calculated per year. And Washington D.C's rate isn't 80, it's more like 31. It's 720 deaths per 100,000 per year for our G.I.s, and 31 per 100,000 per year for Washington D.C... Geez,
