Here's part of an amusing e-mail I received recently.

[b]Doctors[/b]
Number of physicians in the US: 700,000
Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year: 120,000
Accidental deaths per physician: 0.1714
(U.S. Dept.of Health Human Services)

[b]Gun Owners[/b]
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: 0.000018
(Benton County News Tribune)

Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.  Remember,  not everyone has a gun, but everyone has at least one doctor.  Please alert your friends to this alarming threat.  We must ban doctors before this gets out of hand.  Remember guns don't kill people, doctors do!

WOW  My doctor hunts and target shoots. I guess the odds are really against me.
