In April of this year a man in Harrisburg, PA, had his driver's license revoked by the Department of Transportation of Pennsylvania for telling his physician about his alcohol consumption habits, as found at http://www.cnn.com/2004/LAW/07/13/beer.drinkers.license.ap/index.html
Nearly four years ago Gun Owners of America reported on the vigorous campaign against firearms by the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), as can be read at http://www.gunowners.org/op0038.htm
The right to own firearms comes packaged with the responsibility to secure them from being handled by anyone except you or other responsible adults that you designate. How you do that is your business, but doing it is not optional.
Medical practitioners, with their arch nemesis the American Bar Association getting plump through frivolous and opportunistic litigation, either fear for their licenses and livelihoods or take to heart what they read in the journal of the American Academy of Pediatrics.
Our purpose is not to provide legal advice. For guidance in all matters involving the law you're on your own. Thinking people exercise discretion before engaging in any activity regulated by the legal system. People who don't think will eventually wish that had.
Whatever your doctor's agenda, whether it's political (read anti-gun) or the fear of being sued by lawyers or prosecuted by the state for not reporting your personal information to the authorities, either refuse to answer any questions about your ownership of firearms or walk out of the office without saying a word if pressed for an answer. Silence is golden. It may even keep the police from confiscating your guns.
There was once a time when the doctor and patient relationship was sacrosanct. There was also a time when little boys were dressed in knickerbockers and television screens were small and round.
Times change. We may yet see the day when doctors are required to read to you your Miranda rights prior to any line of questioning just as a police officer would do in the event you are arrested.
A word to thinking people is sufficient.
Sincerely,
Rabbi R. Mermelstein
