       The mere presence of your pistol, IMHO, is the same as the doctor 
practicing his "skills".  The point is ACCIDENTAL deaths.....the MISUSE of 
skills.  i think what we are saying is that Doctors are STATISTICALLY more 
likely to cause an accidental death than a gun-owner.  
       Carrying/owning a gun serves the same as a doctor working a 10 hour 
shift in the ER
