Services)

Guns:
a. The number of gun owners in the U.S. 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
0.000188.

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.
