Perhaps the following "STATISTICS" tell it all, which was sent to yers trooly by my great son-in-law down south vie e-mail, of course.
So here's the latest "skinny", for yer edification and general befuddlement.

WHAT WE ALL SHOULD KNOW ??? BUT DON'T !!!
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.
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 0.000188.
Statistics courtesy of F.B.I.
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.

ONE CANNOT ARGUE WITH GUMMENT STATISTICS, CAN ONE ???
Sure glad they hadn't provided the statistics for some of the prescription drugs, the pharmaceutical lobby has foisted on the unsuspecting public by our loving doctor friends, who I might add are licensed by the gumment, and whose license isn't "pulled" every time a death occurs by our loving doctor friends --- or we wouldn't have any left to prescribe those dangerous drugs to we unsuspecting populace.
Gadzooks --- what a life --- so far.
