“Cars result in the same number of deaths per year as do guns. I’m assuming malpractice of various kinds also results in a huge number of deaths...perhaps more than guns.”

It’s a chilling reality – one often overlooked in annual mortality statistics: Preventable medical errors persist as the No. 3 killer in the U.S. – third only to heart disease and cancer – claiming the lives of some 400,000 people each year.

According to the CDC, there were 33,636 deaths due to firearms in 2013.

Can the answer be more clear? BAN DOCTORS, NOT GUNS!

It only makes sense. Far more deadly than guns.
