Hi Michael D. Cummings; Re: "Which place is safer to be an American and walk the streets at night, Chicago or Baghdad?" I hadn't realized that Chicago was so dangerous! Who would ever have imagined that 6 US helicopters have been shot down in Chicago in the last few months? And I didn't know that the residents of Chicago are recycling artillery shells as "improvised explosive devices" for use against the police! -- Carl P.S. The central fallacy of the article is that the population of Chicago is a hell of a lot larger than the number of US troops in Baghdad.
