Came across this at another forum and thought I would share it here
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 per year
Now consider this:
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 per year.
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. |
