     Statistics from the U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services


Number of physicians in the United States: 700,000
Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year: 120,000
Accidental deaths per physician: 0.171

Number of gun owners in the United States: 80,000,000
Number of accidental gun deaths per year: 1,500
Accidental deaths per gun owner: 0.0000188

Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous that gun owners.

FACT: Not everyone has a gun, but everyone has at least one doctor.

Please alert you friends to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets out of hand. As a public health measure, I have withheld the statistics on Lawyers, for fear that the shock could cause people to seek medical aid!
