title: LINQ To SQL: Delete entity (by ID) with one query
body: <p>I've been working with LINQ To SQL for a little while now and when it comes to removing an entity from the DB, I've always called the table's .DeleteOnSubmit and passed in the entity. Sometimes I've found myself writing something like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>db.Users.DeleteOnSubmit(db.Users.Where(c =&gt; c.ID == xyz).Select(c =&gt; c).Single());
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This of course causes two queries. One to get the entity matching the criteria and then another to delete it. Often I have the ID of the record I need removing and I am wondering if there is a more direct way to remove a row from a table via the ID only?</p>
