You are right on with that Fh, the worst is Detroit the last numbers I saw. The media has taken the lead again and told the people of America that Iraq is so bad that we have to get out. Cities in the good ole USA have a bigger death rate from homocides and gang wars but the media plays that down cause it does not get the DEMS any votes. :oops: I bad, this should go in Political, mostly cause Dis won't read the other forums. Where is Dis, she must know that I know who she is and that I know who Ally is. BTW, I feel that sw's man is safer now in Baghdad or where ever he is tonight than he ever was running around Detroit and Miami. He now is trained to defend himself and has the know how to do it, along with the weapons.

Yup, sw. I felt the same way when our son was over there. Knowhow, weapons, and PERMISSION TO USE THEM, unlike over here! :x
