Death Facts

Nine years ago, we lost some folks to terrorists, and that act rewrote laws.

In comparison, 400,000 people died from tobacco last year.

In comparison, 35,000 people died on the nation's highways last year.

In comparison, we lost 315 troops in Afghanistan last year.

Did we lost anybody at all to international terrorists last year?

Those are the numbers which inform my priorities.
