FACTS TO PONDER

[xtraham]

FACTS TO PONDER:


(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.


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.


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 have withheld the statistics
on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek
medical attention

Re: FACTS TO PONDER

I am not sure about my doctor, but know my guns have never killed anyone.

I would also add that most Anti-Gun people never let the facts stand in their way.

Re: FACTS TO PONDER

Retread & still not funny.....
The real question is:
How many people are killed purposefully by doctors vs.gun owners?
To me gun control is a good eye & a steady hand......
Generally speaking, accidental gun deaths are Darwinism at its finest............JK

Re: FACTS TO PONDER

statistics are just that unless your one of them.

how many in each category were needless or preventable?

Re: FACTS TO PONDER

Almost every gun accident would not have happened had a gun not been present.

Re: FACTS TO PONDER

Almost every Physician caused death would not have happened if a physician had not been present.... makes about as much sense.
