A pediatric emergency medicine physician is urging doctors to join the effort for gun control by asking about gun ownership while performing health histories on their patients.
A panel titled âThe Tipping Point: Activating a Public Health Movement to Address Gun Violenceâ was featured at the American Public Health Association (APHA)âs 2015 annual meeting in Chicago earlier in November. The panel called for a view of gun violence as a public health emergency situation.

Suggest said physicians NOT ask about things not relevant to your condition/illness/disease. Remember, not all doctors finished at the top of the class.

The leftist doctors will do this willingly. No one seeking medical services should comply with answering this.

Suggest punching the doc's lights out if he asks if you own a gun.

DO NOT TAKE THE BAIT HERE!
There are 3 possible answers on the federal form (actually I don’t know, but I’m guessing).
1) No, I do not own any guns
2) Yes, but I keep them safely locked up
3) None of your DAMN BUSINESS
Guess who gets the highest level of attention by the authorities.

Just the sort of information that people want entered into their not so private electronic medical records and data bases.

Any doctor who asks, I’ll walk out and report on them widely.

Very Hitleresque. I’d just tell them that I don’t own any guns and let it go at that. Everybody is happy. They asked the question and I answered it. Then we can get down to the non-political reason why I was there in the first place.

This is not new. It has been going on for years pushed by the AMA and the American Academy of Pediatrics.
But what is new is that ObamaCare has forced doctors in to this Digital Medical Records BS.
You can't see your medical records but the government can.

Whereas there is mandatory electronic centralization of health records, this is nothing short of a stealth gun registry.

I was asked once and told the nurse it was none of her beeswax. About the same time I was asked whether there was violence in the home and maybe was I abused. I told her I was a trial attorney and no one messes with me.

Just handle this like your Father would do, “it is none of your gawd damned business”. Or as your Mother would, “that is not the area of your concern”, if you are of the more polite sort.

My HMO has had that question on their health survey for several years. I’ve always left it blank.
