I hunt with 2 MDs and a DO, all three are great in their proffessions and hobbies. Also hunt with a RT as I have COPD, gotta cover the bases. Anyway the supposed satistics are at least 6 yrs. old I agree whole heartly with Dr.Bob and Drew House, but also agree with Ted, it is not the Medical Professions bussiness how many firearms I own or have in my house. Any Dr. asking me that is going to hear it loud and clear from an old Law Enforcement Officer and Army Sgt.

Do you "peons" sign your doublegun posts with "Mr." in front of your name? Of course not.
I was an investment officer for years. We had an "inhouse" saying: "When the doctors get in, it is time for the smart money to get out."
I don't give a rat's a-- whether a man is a doc or not on a gun forum..... He's just another clod looking for a gun or a target - same as the rest of us. When his username contains "Dr." or he signs his posts with "Dr.", all I see is an ego attempting to distinguish himself/herself from the rest of us.
As for individual docs personally, I have had good friendships with many who were great guys.

If an ego is all you see when "Dr." is part of their tag, then perhaps you need to look at yourself. I don't know Dr. Bob but I have read numerous posts from him. I have not picked up on any arrogance in his replies. As for the other individual in this thread who identifies himself as a doctor, Drew Hause, your comment is way off base. Myself and I'm certain countless others have been helped from the advice and information that he has contributed over the time that this forum has been in place.

Well, Dr. Bob asked for doc jokes, so here's one that killed when I used it at a nursing conference. I was a speaker, along with our Chief Medical Officer who was standing next to me at the time and complaining about administration:

"One of our obstetricians is so dumb that he thinks Caesarean section is a residential district in Rome."

The nurses loved it. The doc quit complaining about my side of the house.

Perhaps the experts on the forunm can help me here.
A fellow today stated " I have a BM regularly at 7 AM every day" I asked " Whats wrong with that?".
He said" Well, I don't get up until 8 AM".

I figured I could get the answer here.

Uh, I really like the guy I go to, he's a good guy and really cares about what he does, and the people that come to see him. I'll be up a creek trying to find his replacement, should that day come.

I really like the doctor I go to, too---a woman.

A patient in for a brain transplant was offered a choice by the surgeon. He could choose either the Architect's brain which would cost him $100,000 or the Politician's which was $1,000,000.

"What's the difference?" asked the puzzled patient.

"Well," said the Doc, "the Architects is well used but has some good years left on it, ........ now on the other hand the Pol's is in almost new condition, never really having been used."

This old guy goes to the doctor for his checkup. He's hard of hearing so he takes his wife along. The doctor looks him over then tells him, "Mr. Johnson, I'm going to need a urine sample, a blood sample, a stool sample, and a semen sample."

The old guy turns to his wife and asks, "What did he say?"

The wife yells back, "He said give him your underwear!"

Well that tears it for me! If it's an ego thing then I want in. From now on it's DR Wonko the Sane to you people. I want some respect!
