FACTS:

Guns:
1. The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000
2. The number of accidental gun deaths per year is 1,500
3. the number of accidental deaths per gun owner is 0.000188
(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 our of hand!!!

Out of concern for the public at large,
I have withheld the statistics on lawyers
for fear the shock would case
people to panic and seek medical attention.
