Liberals are outraged that 2,000 Americans have died the
last 2 years attempting to spread freedom in the world with the war in
Iraq. As a result- they believe that America should withdraw its troops
prematurely- which would threaten the growing democracy in Iraq and America's
security. However- during that same 2 year period the following has also
occurred:
- 3,000,000 Americans (unborn babies) were killed as the result of abortions.
- 1,200,000 Americans died as the result of heart disease.
- 800,000 Americans died as the result of smoking.
- 200,000 Americans were killed as the result of medical malpractice.
- 120,000 Americans died as the result of influenza and pneumonia.
- 80,000 Americans were killed as the result of automobile accidents.
This is the leading cause of death for people between the age of 1 and
24.
- 60,000 Americans died as the result of suicide.
- 35,000 Americans were killed as the result of murder.
- 30,000 Americans were killed as the result of non motor vehicle accidents.
- 10,000 Americans were killed as the result of food poisoning.
- 5,000 Americans were killed as the result of murder in the state of
California alone.
