Reason for this was I filled out fomas( about forty pages) at my docs office in the state of Clifornia last week and sure enough there was a "Do you own a gun? question. I didn't know whether to leave blank, put NA, . I told them instead this is not a medical question, it's a political question. Now that statement is in my medical records and wonder is psychology activists are going to file, not forget and sometime in the future check the answers twice. I could not find an article closer to todays date so posted the Vanity 2014 article. Any answers FReepers? How does one answer this question?

They would assume a refusal to answer is a “yes.”
Just lie.

Standard answer should be “Break into my home some night and you’ll find out”.

Always lie and say "no". ANY other answer or a failure to answer will put you down as a "yes".

To quote a judge who was asked the same question by a reporter after acquitting another gun owner of a bogus charge:
“More than I need, not as many as I want.”

“No” is the correct answer.
“They” are compiling a database. Answering “yes” gives them information. Not answering, saying “N/A” or “none of your business,” etc. will just result in them making notes that you are being defiant, etc. AND that you own guns.
Just say “no.” It isn’t like there’s any penalty for lying to your doctor.
No. No. No. No.

My doctor’s just jealous because I have more guns than he does.

This is kind of a non-issue to me because I’m not a doctor and I don’t see doctors. However, the single part of this that infuriates me is the FedGov thinking they have the right to tell doctors what questions they must ask a patient.
If a doctor ever, EVER asked me if I owned a gun, I’d ask if squirt guns count. If he pressed the issue, I’d say my car is white. If he continued to press it I would say the question is as relevant to our visit as the color of my car, and I’m only giving one irrelevant fact today.

Is there enough room for the standard military response regarding nuclear weapons?
“I can neither confirm nor deny the presence of ....”
But yeah I don’t have “a” gun. So the answer would be ‘no’.

It depends on what the definition of “You” is.
It depends on what the definition of “Own” is.
It depends on what the definition of “Gun” is.
What’s good for the goose.

How does one answer this question? Obviously, with a 'no'. Leave it at that.
