Factor in the number of lives saved by doctors and come back to me.
It's not a very good joke if it's worded and supported like a fact.
Good god blockhead please tell me you are not that much of a fucking idiot. I understand this was a while ago, but if you can't get this is a joke when OPs first comment ends with 'we need to ban doctors before this gets out of hand!' you should probably be sterilized for the sake of the gene pool.
I get the joke. I just don't appreciate it. Especially since a Russian Tsar actually killed off all doctors in the empire because he noticed there were more doctors in the more diseased regions and reasoned that doctors cause disease. Since It's a joke, I still vote NW because it's a bad joke.
Thats even worse! I hate you people so much. So your one of those people that 'blah blah blah this isolated incident happened so I'll hate on whatever is related' like when a guy says the joke about ski crashes isn't funny cause his friend died skiing and everyone else is like 'the fucks your deal man relax'. To anyone who gave this post 7 seconds of thought it's very obviously making fun of gun control and gun violence specifically in the US by making a comical comparison with a separate 'issue' that isn't really an issue because no one actually believes doctors are 9000 times more harmful than gun owners. ""This joke about doctors being statistically more dangerous than gun owners isn't funny because a Russian oppressor once killed doctors thinking they were dangerous to people blah blah blah I'm a whiney bitch'" you disgust me Get off the Internet
The Tsar was an idiot. It shows that the joke scenario is well within the limits (if they exist) of human stupidity. That isn't the reason I don't appreciate the joke, just an additional thing about it. I just don't find the joke funny, and the IRL example just cements my view.
Um... It's a joke, just so you know. I really thought that was implied.

Please alert your friends
to this alarming threat. We must ban doctors before this gets completely out of hand!
It should be the number of -all- kinds of gun death, like crimes and murders, not just accidental.
Why? I'm comparing accidental Doctor deaths and accidental Gun death. Adding in non accidental for only one would skew the statistic
