ACCIDENTAL HOSPITAL DEATHS ARE HIGHER THAN ACCIDENTAL GUN DEATHS
     Rep. Traficant, House of Representatives, July 26, 2000

Mr. Speaker, accidental deaths caused by doctors and hospitals in
America  reached  120,000  per  year.  Meanwhile, gun deaths have
dropped 35 percent. In fact, accidental  gun  deaths  dropped  to
1,500 last year.

Think about it. We have got hospitals slicing and dicing American
people  like  Freddie  Kruger,  and  Congress is passing more gun
laws. Beam me up. There is something wrong in America when one is
80  times  more  likely  to  be  killed  by a doctor than Smith &
Wesson. Think about it, 80 to 1.  Maybe we need a gun in surgery.

I yield back the fact that the second amendment was  not  written
to cover just duck hunters.
