Utter B.S.
Where do you get that assumption from? Yes the war is unpopular but the troop's are fully supported by the public and are treated as heroes. I have yet to hear one negative comment in regards to our troops. |
Ditto - utter BS. They seem to get standing applause everytime they even appear anywhere.
Also, Washington DC has a higher murder rate per 100,000 people at about 8.5 per 100K vs 160K US troops in Iraq at a per capita rate of 6.1 per 100K. They are safer over there.
The US should pull out of Washington DC based on those #'s.
