Guns Don't Kill People, Doctors Kill People

Study
A:The number of physicians in the U.S. is700,000.
B: Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year are120,000.
Calculation: 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. is80,000,000. (Yes, that's 80 million..)
B: The number of accidental gun deaths per year, all age groups, is1,500.
Calculation: 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,BUTALMOST 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!!!!!
