Democrats Right? It Must Be A Civil War!

The figures are staggering and now I can only conclude that liberals have been right all along. Consider these facts from the previous two years:

In 2004 there were 16,148 murders. It doesn't matter how - guns, knives, bombs, etc. - when you've been murdered or know of someone murdered does the method really matter anymore? Then last year, 2005, that number increased to 16,692 murdered. In case you don't have your calculator handy that's a total of 32,740 murdered in just the past 2 years.

Many were murdered by those that invaded the country. Others murdered by their own countrymen. Murder is murder. You or your loved one are dead. Period.

Then the violence - awful violence. In the last 2 years the number of reported forcible rapes was 189,023. Innocent women, even underage girls - raped against their will. Horrible crimes.

Much of their violence doesn't get reported - like violent assaults. In 2004 there were 847,381 violent assaults and last year that number grew to 862,947 violent assaults. Add that up and you have 1,710,328 violent assaults in the past 2 years. Does that sound like people in that country are safe to walk in their own streets?

So by liberal logic we need to pull out now - pull out of America, because these are part of the FBI crime statistics for the United States of America. Obviously Iraq is a safer place to live.

I've seen no "peace protesters" with signs marching against criminals in the USA. I've not seen any child protection group protesting these crime rates. I've seen little being done to halt and reverse the invasion of illegal aliens (criminals) into our country - perpetrators of a huge part of these awful crimes.

But hey - our federal and state governments are attacking trans-fats and cell phones!
