Doctors vs Gunowners


Doctors


 


(A)   The number of physicians in the U.S. is
 




700,000. 
  



(B)   Accidental deaths caused by Physicians
 



per year are   120,000. 
  


(C)   Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171. 
  


Statistics courtesy of U.S. Dept of
 



Health and Human Services.

Now think about this:
 




Guns 
 



(A)   The number of gun owners in the U.S.    
 



is 80,000,000.  
 


(Yes, that's 80 million)
 


 


(B)   The number of accidental gun deaths
 



per year, all age groups, is
 



1,500.   
 



(C)   The number of accidental deaths
 



per gun owner is    
 



.000188.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>     
  



So, statistically, doctors are approximately
 



9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.
 



>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>   
 



Remember, 'Guns don't kill people, doctors do.'
 




  >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 
  



FACT:   NOT EVERYONE HAS A GUN, BUT    
 



ALMOST EVERYONE HAS AT LEAST ONE DOCTOR.
 



>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>   
 



Please alert your friends  
 



to this
 



alarming threat. 
 



We must ban doctors  
 




before this gets completely out of hand!!!!!
 



>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>  
 




Out of concern for the public at large,
 



I withheld the statistics on  
 




  lawyers 
 



for fear the shock would cause  
 



people to panic and seek medical help
