Who said doctors would be put in charge of adult's gun safety procedures? No-one. People are paranoid like crazy that doctors are goin to be unwittingly part of some anti-gun conspiracy. They just want to provide information to parents to help keep their kids healthy. Prevention, in any medical area is far more powerful and far less expensive and risky than treating someone after the fact.

Going back to the article, the proposed law is an unconstitutional infringement of free speech. The legislature has no right to pass a law that restricts what people can talk about. Everyone on this thread is so worried about their losing 2nd amendment rights that they want take away other poeple's 1st amendment rights. It's disgusting!

I agree with you that doctors should never be banned from saying anything by law. Patients, on the other hand, should not cooperate with doctors becomming nosey nannies. And whatever a patient tells the doctor, they should know it will most likely become a part of a computer system available for others to tap into and use against the patient's best interests.
