How to Assess Risk

 

 

Doctors

 

 

 

 

 

(A)  The number of physicians in the U.S. is
                          700,000.

(B)  Accidental deaths caused by Physicians

                  per year are 120,000.

(C)  Accidental deaths per physician

                       Is 0.171

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

       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 1,500.

(C)  The number of accidental deaths per gun owner is .0000188

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

So,   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.
This means you are over 9,000 times more likely to be killed by a doctor as by a gun owner!!!


>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

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,
      We withheld the statistics on
             lawyers
for fear the shock would cause people to panic and seek medical attention!

How to Assess Risk

Short and Profound


 

 

Short and Profound

 

These three statements tell you a lot about our culture:

 

1.
We are advised by the Liberals to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.

Funny how that works.

And another statement for consideration--

2.
We constantly hear about how CPP (Canada Pension Plan) is going to run out of money..  How come we never hear about welfare running out of money?
What's interesting is the
first group "worked for" their money, but the second Didn't.


Finally

 

3.
Provincial Social Services (welfare payments) is proud to be distributing this year the greatest amount of free money ever .

Meanwhile, the Parks Branch, asks us "Please Do Not Feed the Animals."

The stated reason for this policy is because "The animals will grow dependent on handouts and will not learn to take care of themselves."

 


That ends Today's Lesson On Irony
