Subject: Guns or doctors?


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

Number of gun owners in the US: 80,000,000. 
Number of accidental gun deaths per year (all age groups): 1,500. 
Accidental deaths per gun owner: 0.0000188 

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

FACT:  Only  about 25% of U.S. residents have a gun, but most people have
at least one doctor. 

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat.  We must ban doctors
before this gets out of hand. 

Statistics on lawyers are being withheld as a public health measure; the
shock could cause people to seek medical aid.
