I'm sure everybody has read this before, but it goes with the thought of the day, so I'll post it anyway.

There are 700,000 physicians in the U.S. Accidental deaths caused by physicians total 120,000 per year. Accidental death percentage per physician is 0.171.

There are 80 million gun owners in the U.S. There are 1,500 accidental gun deaths per year. Accidental death percentage per gun owner is 0.0000188.

That makes doctors 9,000 times more dangerous to the public health than gun owners.

By the liberal logic, the U.S. should outlaw doctors.

Not everyone has a gun, but almost everyone has at least on doctor.
