That's actually the core issue behind the question. Obama pushed to allow doctors to report patients directly to the background check system to get them banned from buying guns, and also pushed for MediCare and MediCaid to have doctors asked about gun ownership and to report that to the feds.

If it's a doctor asking a patient who's in for serious depression (of the "Live isn't worth living any more" variety), that's fine.

But if it's government led and government reported - then CONGRESS needs to step up and stop it.

Florida should be able to rework it's law to get around this court decision, just remove the part about doctors can never ask and replace it with doctors can never report gun ownership to any government entity.
