I fiercely love the right to keep and bear arms and would enjoy sseing all gun laws rescinded, but once govt takes over the health care industry we’re not going to have to worry about our gun rights - they’ll be gone. A govt official will declare gun owners “unhealthy” and any gun owner would then be denied health care and, to really convince him to stop thinking like a free man, they will also deny care to his wife and kids. Could this happen? I think it’s possible. Remember a few years back where children’s doctors were asking “Is there a gun in the house?”

They still ask.
And in the UK your health care is limited if you smoke or are what the government calls “obese”.
Yes, it can happen hear, firearms after all being vicious and use lead, and powder. Many ways to limit health care options for gun owners.

I had it happen, on a questionnaire during a routine check up for my son. When the doctor came in, I asked if he was a household safety expert, and why weren’t they also asking about swimming pools and other hazards that cause more accidental deaths than firearms. I then told him I thought the question likely represented a boundary violation.
He got really defensive, really fast.
