I figured that doctors wouldn’t normally ask about such a thing unless it were part of some broader, anti-gun effort. There’s a bigger issue here than just this, clearly.

Yea, it DEFINITELY is. I think this crap started when the CDC started calling gun-related injuries (and deaths) ‘diseases’ and then used their communications pipelines to tell doctors to start asking about it. The doctors, particularly the pediatricians (i.e., left wing nutcases), eat this stuff up and cannot wait to start the inquisition of their patients. This is right out of DC, and pre-dates Obama, at least in my case.
I had a pediatrician give me a guns are hazardous to children lecture once, when I answered “yes” to the question.
Now I don’t answer the question at all except a shrug to my OBGYN who accepted “I work in downtown Dallas, sometimes in the early morning and weekends, and this ensures you will never had to treat me for rape” as a valid answer.
