“Is gun regulation a public health issue?”

That’s a two sided question.

Exactly. It's deceiving. I did not respond.

It’s only deceiving in the sense that the facts say anti-2A laws disarm the populace against criminals.

But the obvious purpose of this poll is to drum up more tired “blood in the streets”, “think of the children!” emotions. Hence I voted “No”.

I take a different tack on the socio-neurotic questions that health care providers ask.

I don't answer, rather I simple say “please explain how that question pertains to my (ingrown toenail, heart condition, etc) and appropriate treatment?

The screening nurse usually says, “I have no idea” it's on the form...”

I respond that “I will ignore the question that do not pertain to my health care issue”.

The have gotten used to me and no longer ask if I “feel safe at home, if I am depressed, or if I use illegal drugs etc”. I do answer that I do not smoke or drink, because I don't and they are known contributing factors to poor health.

Do answer nanny-statist BS, they cannot decline treatment and if they do, I know this tort lawyer who is building a multimillion dollar home and could use some work....

God Bless!
