Doctors vs Gun Owners
 
 
Doctors  
    (A)   The number of physicians in the United States 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 Human Services.
 
Now think about this:
 
Guns
    (A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000. (80 million)
    (B) The number of accidental gun deaths per year, in all age groups is 1,500.
    (C) The number of accidental deaths per gun owner  is  .000188.

Statistics courtesy of FBI
 
==============================================
 
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!!!!

Yeah, I loved this one too. After all, how often can I post in humor and make two political statements at the same time?...
