So statistically, medical 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 MEDICAL DOCTOR.

Please alert your friends to this alarming threat. We must ban medical doctors before this gets completely out of hand!!!

Out of concern for the public at large, I have withheld statistics on lawyers for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical
attention.
