Physicians vs Gun Owners
Physicians:
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 &Human Services)
Now think about this . . .
Guns:
a. The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000.
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 0.000188.
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 out of hand!
Note: Out of concern for the public at large, I have withheld the statistics on
lawyers f or fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical
attention.

Is this true???
what a dumbass, no
this is fu(ked up
That’s hilarious, and I’d be willing to bet that it’s true.
That was quite good. specially the part after the lawyers. Good one .
That was quite good. especially the part that asked “is this true???”.good one
This is absolutely true but the information is a bit dated. I first saw this about 6 years ago through viral e-mail humor.
perhaps it is, but add in the deliberate deaths caused by doctors and gun owners and the number changes dramatically
ACCIDENTAL deaths only? What about ones done with intention?
Are you seriously comparing accidental deaths to a problem caused because of crimes done with intent?
Seriously?
Dumbass.
It’s a JOKE people.
Oh yes, of course, doctors are definitely dangerous! they are definitely out to kill their patients. They aren’t trying to help people, that is just ridiculous. lol.
hmmm now lets do a life improved / saved tally
Wow, you people are obscenely stupid, this is funny as hell
