Actuall while the number of homicides in CA were larger than the number of US deaths in Iraq, the RATE is not larger as the article says.My thought exactly. You can count on WND to be sloppy. 2400 out of 33 million is not a higher rate than 905 out of 160,000. You'd think that even journalists must have taken a math course at some point.

"My thought exactly."
I don't know if your intentionally being deceptive... But you are, none the less.
LA and other cities where these deaths occur do not have a population of 33 million.

Iraq is an active war zone.
California is not.
The comparison has value.
