I thought "Wow, strip out the IED and non-combat deaths and how would the Iraq vs DC firearms deaths compare."

Ran across this

scienceavenger.blogspot.com

Iraq deaths are per month. DC deaths per year.

Also DC 80 per 100000 appears high. Was 20.6 per 100000 in 2006.

As a check 2112 deaths/ 22 months= 96 deaths/month = 1152 deaths/yr.
160000= 1.6 X 100000.
1152/ 1.6 = 720 deaths/100000
