Well I can't vouch for the numbers and percentages....but if someone asked me, I'd say that it would have to be close to the truth....yeah. ;)

Stop.

Guns and people do not kill, bullets do....The only exception?

You have your head caved in while a victim of a pistol whipping.

(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.


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.

Therefore, 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. :p

Dont forget the lawyers that get the doctors off so they can kill again.

Wombat, What about the doctors & lawyers that give us some form of PTSD when they hand us the bill for their services. :eek:
