16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.

My wife just went to a new doctor here behind the hemp curtain in California she told me that the doctor gave her a form to fill out that asked all kinds of questions about things such as if she engaged in any extreme sports like scuba diving, motorcycle riding AND if there were any firearms in the house. Being from Georgia you can probably imagine what she told them. Had to find another doc.

“...the doctor gave her a form to fill out that asked all kinds of questions about things such as if she engaged in any extreme sports like scuba diving, motorcycle riding AND if there were any firearms in the house.”

When I had cataract surgery last year, the surgery center gave me a form to fill out. My friend, who is vice-chair of the state Texas Republican Party, was with me. The last series of questions was about my private life. I showed the questions to my friend, and she was appalled anyone would be asked those questions. So, now, she knows that is happening and it's good for a party official to know.

There were many personal questions, among them, “Are you being abused at home by your husband or family?” “Do you wish to talk to a counselor?” “Is anyone keeping you from leaving your house?”

The questions went on and on, prying into your life. There was not a gun question on there. I left all the questions blank. Took the form back to the window, said, “I'm not answering the personal questions because you shouldn't have asked.” Woman said, “That's okay.”
