Ask the Doc if he has a car and which kills more people, those or guns! Doctors kill more than either. Now thats what im going to say if ever asked.

I have never been asked in Wyoming or Arizona, probably because almost everyone is armed to the teeth, including the doctor. Waste of time to even ask.

it's already headed back to court. This is more 'making law from the bench', and won't stand.

"The 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found that the law does not trespass on patients' Second Amendment rights to own guns and noted a patient who doesn't want to be questioned about that can easily find another doctor."
And a queer can easily find another baker/florist. and of course, just try to find another doctor. Ain't all that easy these days.

I usually answer, "Guns? In my house! Are you serious?"
The person asking usually apologizes.

They can ask all they want... Last time I was asked I said "Sure, what do you want one for?" He grinned and we proceeded to see what was wrong with me.
The tax collector said: “Lord Jesus, have mercy on me, a sinner.” Jesus said he went home “justified.”

The person asking usually apologizes. Tracy, the problem that caused the law about doctors asking about guns, was not when you are at the docs, but when your kids are. Doctors, particularly the pediatricians, are rabidly anti gun, and parents got tired of the constant tirades, the constant questions to children, the constant prying into family business. Kids trust the doctor, and tell them everything.

Haven't been asked in California and I have been to more doctors than you might believe.

It appears that the 5th Amendment doesn't apply....
What would keep someone from purchasing a firearm after the Dr. visit? Or lying? Any penalties for lying? Could he ask if there's a tall bridge close to home? Do you own golf clubs? Do you get pissed off at you wife/kids?
This is bullscheit!

Simple enough just to tell the Doc GFY. Right? Why the fugg would anybody answer that?

"Of course not, Doc. Guns are dangerous and I've no need for one!"
Tell the Dr. "GFY" and that's noted as a "yes, he's got guns and he's hostile and irrational"

"Why is that question even on there since it has nothing to do with any medical condition?" Is what I said the last time I was asked that question. The nurse had no idea why and said so. The doctor did not pursue the question.

What is a kid doing going into the Dr.'s office by himself? I am sure mine never did.

Not all, of course, but their professional association and their residency professors, by and large fit that profile. DF

There are medical conditions where that may be a relevant question. (depression, for one) Asking a question never hurts, and it is their right, under the first amendment. That does not put you under any obligation to answer, truthfully, or otherwise.

I had a doctor ask me about my gun ownership once. I told him just as soon as he disclosed how many battery operated sex toys his wife owned I would answer the gun question.
It pissed him off but ended any inquiries about me owning guns.

I will immediately end my visit and find a doc that won't ask such questions.
