Ban all doctors!

[rattler]

Doctors:
A) The number of physicians in the US 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 Human services and is a conservative number.

Now think about this:

Guns:
A) The number of gun owners in the U.S. is 80,000,000. Yes, that is 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 0.0000188.

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.
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 have withheld the statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention.





man these guys on my other forum are having fun. no personal digs intended, THIS IS A JOKE PEOPLE!!!!!

 

[rattler]

actually scratch that, the stats are real but it is presented in the form of a JOKE

Boy, if you need a disclaimer that this is a joke, we are REALLY being hypersensitive! I thought that was quite amuzing, actually.

 

[rattler]

i never know with this bunch, some guys and gals on here tend to be hypresensitve

 

[TheAlphaWolf]

agreed

Just a thought here, i personally think that cars are more dangerous than guns. There are a lot of cars out there, and all someone has to do is drive in to a crowd... The average gun available to the public can't do anywhere near that damage.

BAN ALL CARS!

besides, they're bad for the environment (doesn't ANYONE think of the environment these days?)

Well the cars are worth the entertainment. I mean how would we get all those funny insurance claims? Like: "I was a pedestrian try to hurry out of my way. He was all over the place at once. I had to swerve several times to hit him."

dont you get it? long -term thinking and forethought for future generations is OUT (aka not cool, as one person said)

Selfeshness and shortsightedness, however, are always in style!

 

[TunaSurprise]

Yes, like doctors. Wasting all of those latex gloves! How dare them only using them one time!
