Guns and Doctors


         
Doctors
 
(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 and Human Services.
 
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 

Now think about this:
 
Guns
 
(A) The number of gun owners in the U.S.
 
is
 
80,000,000.(Yes, that's 80 million)
 
(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
 
.0000188
 
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.
 
This means you are over 9,000 times more likely to
 
be killed by a doctor as by a gun owner!!!
 

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 

Please alert your friends
to this alarming threat.
 
We must ban doctors
 
before this gets completely out of hand!!!!!
 
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
 
Out of concern for the public at large,
We withheld the statistics on

lawyers
 
for fear the shock would cause
people to panic and seek medical attention

You forgot to mention the INTENTIONAL killing with weapons. That's what makes gun use dangerous >.>

You need to go to a doctor.....you need an optirectomy.

You don't need a gun to kill somebody, so intentional does not count here.

Guns don't kill people, people kill people.
Plus, I prefer knives. Like Stilettos and Balisongs.

Sage hits the nail bang on the head. A physician is not trained to injure people, he is trained to aid them with injuries and ailments and so forth. Guns are primarily designed to kill. The accidental death rate per gun owner is meaningless, because you are 9,000 times more likely to be killed by a physician than be ACCIDENTALLY killed by a gun, according to your statistics. There are almost half a million murders in the USA, according to the statistics, giving a murders per gun owner rate as being 0.0055. Granted, it's not as high as the supposed 0.171 deaths per physician, but physicians do a lot to help people. And each physician helps a LOT more people than each gun owner kills.

Read through the OP -> Kinda' skimmed it a little -> And I came to this conclusion:
"Doctors have a power level of 9000"
Or something like that.
.......
Dont judge me, and my habit of trying to find memes in things ;-;

People with guns who intend to kill with them do not obtain them legally anyways.


For once the mods did something right
