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

(Calculation) The number of accidental deaths

per gun owner

is

.000188

So, statistically, doctors are approximately

9,000 times more dangerous than gun owners.

Remember, 'Guns don't kill people, doctors do.'
