If my doctor ever asked me, I would tell him that it was none of his damned business and find a new doctor.
I will simply tell them no.
If my doctor ever asked me,...”
I have a great internist. Met him and his wife while they were shooting in the adjacent lanes at one of our local ranges. He said he asks people if they own a gun and if they say no, he asks them why not and offers to give them the name and phone number to a local range if they are interested in learning how to protect themselves.
He does not accept any insurance and said he can’t add any new patients for at least six months as he has a very, very busy practice.
I don’t have that option.
I, of course, answered that I didn't own any guns.
There was also a question pertaining to gun control laws and if I approved of gun control.
I answered that when guns are taken away from law-abiding citizens, then only criminals will have guns. I should have added, that potentially includes the police.
In addiction, I wrote that the defendant, who was pleading not guilty to 1st degree attempted murder, 1st degree assault and attempted assault, needed to man-up, accept his punishment, get out of prison, get his life straightened out and become a good citizen.
The judge called me in and questioned me at length. I maintained that he was guilty and that I didn't believe in innocence until proven guilty. I was excused.
