This is an email that I got from my Dad, Ya'll may have already seen this, just wanted to share.

Doctors vs. Gun Owners

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
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 the 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.
This means you are over 900 times more likely to be killed by a doctor than 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!
