“Doctor, I’ve been sad ever since my beloved Bowser died”.
“Just a minute, while I make a phone call.”
“Hello, I have a patient who’s depressed. He said he has guns. Guess you’re gonna have to take them away.”

Of course, refusal to participate will be an indicator.

Screen all for depression and then with a doctor’s statement deprive a citizen of Second Amendment Rights. The doctors would probably be given a profile of those who are likely to be depressed and most of those won’t actually have but two symptoms, conservatism and firearm ownership.

"I bet they include a provision that refusing to take a test for depression is a sign of depression."

A while back when I was in the hospital for surgery, a social worker came around to question me. When she asked if I felt safe at home, I said, yes, if anyone comes in to rob me I'll shoot them. I don't think she expected that answer.

The pharmaceutical companies will love this, too. Heck, they're probably sponsoring it. Another way to get more people taking their pills and potions.I've found that exercise is a very good way to keep mentally upbeat. I like cycling (the only downside is dealing with the occasional knucklehead driver). That, and an occasional after-ride libation, and I'm all set.

I’ve lied to my doctor for years. Of course he retired when obamashitcare became reality.
