Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 Caused by doctors? Where is your data to back that claim up? Doctors Think about this: a. The number of physicians in the US is 700,000. b. Accidental deaths caused by Physicians per year is 120,000. c. Accidental deaths per physician is 0.171. (US Dept. of Health & Human Services) Then think about this: a. The number of gun owners in the US 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 .0000188. Statistically, doctors are approximately 9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners. 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 out of hand. As a public health measure I have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear that the shock could cause people to seek medical attention Peace, Jeanine http://www.animationcity.net/gifz/jazz.gif <http://www.animationcity.net/gifz/jazz.gif> http://hepchelp.homestead.com <http://hepchelp.homestead.com/> _____ Chat with friends online, try MSN Messenger: Click Here <http://g.msn.com/1HM1ENUS/c144??PS=47575> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 Look at it this way, which should be the right way to look at it. Physicians handle 5 million people who are sick and are about to die, and fail to rescue just 0.12 million of them. Without doctors, 5 million may die. Gun owners kill people who are healthy: murder. Without gun owners, there will be 0 death due to gun injury. cheers, Arnold Kim, Ph. D.

Guest guest Posted September 30, 2002 Report Share Posted September 30, 2002 does this mean if i buy a gun i'll be healed?? or maybe i shouldn't take my dr. on that hunting trip. p.s. i did some checking,all the accidental deaths caused by drs. were people that were accidentally shot with a gun. conclusion guns or drs. don't kill people, accidents do.
