I was thinking the same thing. Now we need to calculate the odds of being accidentally shot by your doctor with a gun...

Hmmmm... That'll be tough! I'm better armed than my doctor, but he's the one who ordered the colonoscopy.

shipoker55: 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 .000188.
Statistics courtesy of FBI
So, statisticallyspeaking, 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!!!!!
Out of concern for the public at large, I withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention!one of those things that make you go...HMMMMMMMMMMM

I still maintain that it's OK to own a gun, but bullets should cost $800.00 each.

I can see it now. A guy goes to a convience store and sticks a doctor in the cashiers face and demands all the money.

That works for me! The majority of my guns are muzzle loaders and don't require bullets. As for the rest, I'm perfectly capable of making my own thereby effectively lowering my tax base and personal expenditures while maintaining my rights and freedoms!
