There's lies, damn lies, and then there's statistics. They aren't reporting anything all in one place.

Did you actually take the time to check the facts on those statistics
before forwarding to the list? Heck, if you do click on the link in
the posting where the figures "may be confirmed by anyone," a pdf of
the report is downloaded, and the first page of the report is an FAS
note about a spam email making the rounds with inaccurate figures.
One can then go on to read the real figures (or you can access them
on the fas.org site if you don't want to download the pdf). The
numbers in the posting from jmroll AT bellsouth.net are the inaccurate
ones from the spam email.
