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

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.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>



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.


This means you are over 900 times more likely to be killed by a doctor as a gun owner!!!



>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>



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 withheld the statistics on


Lawyers


for fear the shock would cause


people to panic and seek medical attention!

Come on Esskay,

Let's not be so hard on Doc.

When you get accidentaly shot (God forbid) (not mortally) do you want to see a another gun owner or Doc?

When your child is sick do you take them to your gun dealer or Doc?

Oops no disrespect meant to anyone..I might be a doc myself lol! Just a joke someone emailed me and I thought I would share.... We do need to laugh at ourselves from time to time!!

That has been around for a while. I thought it was funny the first time and I think it's funny this time. My doctor thinks it's very funny (I'm not the one that told it to him) and everyso often gets parts of it into our conversations.

Great anology!

cars are also 132% more deadly than gun owners

the best part of this humor is that it is true. The FBI provided the gun deaths part.
