Pretty good article by a doctor:

“University of Chicago economics professor Steven Levitt has also warned about excessive fear mongering about gun ownership. In their best seller Freakonomics, he and co-author Stephen Dubner note that a child is 100 times more likely to die in a swimming accident than a gun accident.

Yet the AAP does not tell parents to “NEVER bring your child to a swimming pool,” nor does it advocate “the strongest possible regulations of swimming pool ownership.” Rather, it recommends that parents supervise children around swimming pools and follow basic rules of water safety....

Doctors already have a professional and legal responsibility to notify the authorities if they believe patients pose an imminent threat to others or themselves. But routine inquiry about gun ownership goes far beyond this obligation. Such inquiries will instead only offend and alienate many responsible gun owners, compromising the trust essential to the doctor-patient relationship. Doctors should not put themselves in a position where patients view them as willing (or unwitting) agents of the government working against their interests.”

"...That’s malpractice! Sue your doctor! Even one you’ve had for years! Lawsuit! Go to court and have your gunownership known in the courtroom!..."


Or you can calmly say, "No, I don’t own guns." and effortlessly move on with your life in under two seconds of time.
