A recent study found that the likelyhood of being killed is 8X higher in Philidelphia than in Bagdad. Adjusted by population size, of course.
I want to start a blog that gives daily death totals in Iraq, traffic fatalities in the US daily, and the number who die daily in the US from smoking.
Can't do it. Although the numbers of fatalities in the US is much higher (like 90,000 traffic fatalities and 600,000 smoking related deaths) during the time it took to reach 3000 deaths in Iraq, no one seems to notice.
