Guns don't kill people

Results of New CDC Study in the US:

Doctors

A) The number of doctors in the US is 700,000

B) Accidental deaths caused by physicians per year are 120,000

C) Accidental deaths per physician is 17.14%

Statistics courtesy of the US Dept. of Health & Human Services

Guns

A) The number of gun owners in the US 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 0.001875%

Statistics courtesy of the 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 A DOCTOR.

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We should ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!

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