MEDICAL PHYSICIANS VS GUN OWNERS
JUST ANOTHER LAUGH.....
MEDICAL PHYSICIANS vs. GUN OWNERS
Medical Physicians:
a. The number of medical physicians in the U.S. is approx. 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 & Human Services)
Now think about this:
Guns:
a. The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000.
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 0.0000188.
Statistically, medical 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 have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.

Re: MEDICAL PHYSICIANS VS GUN OWNERS
something doesnt add up...
700,000 doctors / 120,000 accidental deaths = 5.83 deaths per doctor.
Same goes for the other numbers.. I dunno.. I've never been good with math.==============
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom, — go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen!”
~Samuel Adams
"I would rather be exposed to the inconveniences attending too much liberty than to those attending too small a degree of it."
~Thomas Jefferson, 1791

Re: MEDICAL PHYSICIANS VS GUN OWNERS
