Food for Thought

Food for thought
Physicians
1, the number of physicians in the US is 700,000
2, Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year is 120,000
3, Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171 (statistics courtesy of the US Dept of Health & Human Services.

Guns
1, the number of gun owners in the US is 80,000,000
2, the number of accidental gun deaths each year (all age groups) is 1500
3, the number of accidental deaths per gun owner is 0.000188

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 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, I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.
