The U.S. experts:
More than one-third of all fatal work injuries from accidental gunshot wounds were suffered by government workers. Of these, nearly half (47 percent) worked for the Federal Government, almost all of whom were employed in the national security field.4 Local government workers accounted for 46 percent of all government fatalities. Within local government, these kinds of occupational fatalities most frequently occurred among workers employed in police protection.
19 percent of the decedents were either involved in training or at a shooting range at the time of their deaths. In addition, 9 percent of the fatalities involved a weapon discharging while the weapon was on the decedent’s person.
More than one-third of all fatal work injuries from accidental gunshot wounds were suffered by government workers. Of these, nearly half (47 percent) worked for the Federal Government, almost all of whom were employed in the national security field.
So people who work with guns a lot have more accidents with guns.
Jeez, Woofie, mind-blowing statistics.

Let’s see, they don’t allow competition, they set their prices as high as they can. They can’t deliver a piece of mail across town in a day.
Close enough for me.
(Actually I think the Post Office does do a pretty good job delivering mail. I just don’t like the price they make us pay.)
