Just goes to show that when someone is so focused on something they don't believe in or is strongly against tunnel vision takes over and they don't see the bigger picture.

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 Human
services and is a
conservative number.

Now think about this:

Guns:

A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000.
Yes, that is 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
0.0000188.
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
m! ust ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!!
