I think that crime rate per capita could be higher than present day Iraq’s!

Not to seem flippant over people's lives, but you have a valid point. The per capita murder rate in the City of Los Angeles is higher than the U.S. heroes combat fatality rate in Iraq, which the councilmembers are condemning President Bush for.

Iraq: 27,500,000 people according to the C.I.A.
Los Angeles: 3,819,000 people in 2003, according to the U.S. Census

There have been 3146 American heroes' deaths since 3/19/2003, which is almost 700 per year.

Los Angeles City alone has almost 500 homicides each year.

Living in Iraq under President Bush's "failed policies" is many times safer than living under the Democrat-rules (and ruined) Los Angeles.
