Gun safety should be taught in schools. The NRA will send Eddie Eagle to schools to give them an idea how to teach gun safety.
Easy peasie.
The correct answer is no.
Always.
Dr Q: “Do you own guns?”
Patent A: “Do you still beat your mistress?”
No, the answer is no.
Any other answer means yes.
I stay the hell out of Boston but, if my Dr. asks, I’ll have to relate the sad story of how all my firearms were lost in a tragic canoeing accident. Never could afford to replace them.
They probably hear that more than we think!
Years ago, a freeper, posted a form to give to physicians asking about gun ownership. I used it when my children went to the doctor. We were told not to come back at a couple offices in the twin cities, However, we did have a select few that stated they never ask even though required by policy, but answer the question on their computers as a ‘no’. One of our childrens doctors was also a part time deputy and he told his outfit that he wasn’t subjecting his license to a lawsuit over that question.
UR right—that’s the way to go!
I had a doctor ask me this once. I told him it was none of his business.
Choose your doctor wisely. MY doctor is a hunter, enjoys trapshooting, and of course is a gunowner. He is also very proTrump. My former doctor was also all of the above except he enjoyed skeet. Years of hunting experiences exchanged have made visits for health reasons mostly enjoyable.
Totally agree. Nor is the fact I drink an occasional Beer. Know more about the Meds than they do, as a med sensitive patient, I research every Script, not just for me, Hubby has Glaucoma restrictions the IDIOTS don’t take into account when scripting.
What chaps my 70 yr old hide is your office is in a Crime War zone, and you don’t want my CCW piece in your office and don’t supply a Armed security guard. Then who is to protect me from a serial rapist doctor or should I say PA, APN, NP, seeing a doctor is getting rare, except for Specialist. Have 4 of those.
The Boston "Mayor" could save many more lives by registering and locking up Kennedys than doctors asking about guns.
I saw it on one of those info forms you have to fill out for a new doc. I put a big NA , not applicable, next to it. I use NA in a lot of the blanks on those forms.
"...No, the answer is no.
Any other answer means, yes..."
Communist governments were notorious for having kids report on their parent’s anti-revolutionary activities
“I can neither Confirm nor Deny that information”
I know My Podiatrist is a Firearms Owner.
You could also reply, “Is there child pornography on your computer?”
[[The doctor just marked your response as YES on the yes/no form with subsequent entry in a federal database.]]
They don’t have a legal right to lie about your answer-
"...legal right..."
