response to pickleed:  If proponents of gun ownership are so
certain of their rights, why would they care if someone else
asked them if they owned a gun or not? Especially their family
physician, who to do his or her job correctly, needs to know
everything they can about their patient. The Paranoia of the NRA
and its followers just keeps growing. Have you heard of the
Doctor-Patient Privilege?  Good point. What’s the next step?
Let’s allow lobbyists for big tobacco, liquor manufacturers and
sellers, fast food franchises etc. to write laws stopping
physicians from asking about their products, and the only thing
your doctor will be able to ask you about will be the weather,
unless she’ll be accused of claiming global warming is factual.
