the mortality rate for having a baby exceeds all service member serving even Iraq and Afghanistan- yikes!

"Dr. Elizabeth Raymond from Gynuity Health Projects in New York City and Dr. David Grimes of the University of North Carolina School of Medicine, Chapel Hill, found that between 1998 and 2005, one woman died during childbirth for every 11,000 or so babies born"

The current mortality rate for infantrymen serving in Iraq and Afghanistan is 7/100,000 and 64/ 100,000 respectively.

And so this jerk wants women to endure a higher than combat risk of mortality because HE THINKS that is how it should be?
