Title: Statistics For CCTAU
Post by: Snaggletiger on October 04, 2010, 05:22:38 PM
Doctors vs.GunOwners
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!

That was great Snaggle. As an admitted member of the NRA, I know Chad will at least agree with me and CCTAU on the gun debate.  :thumsup:

Another thing that doesn't get reported is when armed citizens thwart criminal activity, and defend themselves and their families.

What I really found interesting is that whether someone dies from a doctor or a gun......






A lawyer is always involved. hehehehe

For the record, I believe gun ownership is one of the cornerstones of liberty in this country.

The city that I live in requires me to own a gun. I think it's a good law.

But like most email chain letters, those stats are misleading at best. They might as well have come from Nigeria.

Well at least they didn't ask for my bank account number.
