Maybe this has something to do with the fact
that most residents of DC do not:
1. Walk around town in body
armor
2. Commute to and from work in 'up-armor' humvees,
Bradleys, and tanks
3. Spend the vast majority of the day in a heavily
fortified 'green zone'
Don't get me wrong - we are in total agreement on the
*issue*, as far as I can tell. There's just a part of me that gets real
PO'ed when people take numbers like these and try to compare apples and oranges
- actually, this is more like apples and bullets.
I can do it too! Did you know that the incidence
of rape and ice cream consumption follow the same cyclical trend? If we
could just outlaw ice cream, or even better require two forms of
government-issued ID for people who buy ice cream "for their own enjoyment", we
could lock up those raping bastards in a new york minute! What a step
forward this would be for the women in this country! And best of all, if a
rape did occur, we would have a handy database of ice cream consumers as primary
suspects, which should lead to quick resolution of the
crime.
Or, it could be that no one but a retard wants to hangs
his nads outside his pants when its twenty below zero...or eat ice
cream.
OBC - I love Bama and so should you! And
you!! And you!!!
