I heard on the radio, that per capita, your likelihood of being murdered in DC is higher than your chance of dying in Iraq, murder/terrorism combined.

Now going with U.S. forces makes you a target which I’m sure would skew those statistics, but DC is the murder capital of the world, and you don’t hear anyone being lectured about moving there for a good job.
