Now when the doctor asks “What is the primary safety”? then puts goop on it and rams it up my butt I’ll remember.

[IronJack]

Simple solution: lie. “Oh, no, Doc. I don’t have any guns. I hate guns. Wouldn’t let ‘em near me. No sirree ...”

[Orangedog]

Look up oppositional defiant disorder in the DSM IV. That kind of answer will get you reported to the feds as being “mentally ill” and prohibited from gun ownership.

He can ask; I don’t have to answer

[Quickgun]

That’s right. It is against the law for the docs to ask, or has Zero forgotten what he signed into law? This ought to be fun....

[Vaduz]

The federal government has authorized me to ask for your papers please.
Every day he takes a right away,you snooze you lose.

Seinfeld re Elaine’s chart....

Illegitimate.

[ballplayer]

When the doctor asks,do you have a gun,I ask,do you?What kind how many,how much ammo do you have?

[hiredhand]

I sincerely hope that there is a place for free form text on the questionnaire because my only two answers will be "Go to hell" and "Kiss my ass".

[MaxMax]

Doc I see you have a crooked nose, you must have been practicing since 2013.

[P-Marlowe]

As they say in boot camp:

This is my rifle
and
THIS is my gun....

If the doctor asks, then you just say, "I got your gun right here. Put that in your chart."

They also have veterinarians collecting data under the guise of asking if you use your dog for hunting.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

A good doc would say take two asprin and call me in the morning. If you have a good doc, take him out to the range or hunting.

LOL!

That was a good one, Megan!

[Tenacious 1]

Obamacare also makes all medical records, in part, property of the federal government. If your doctor records your answers to his/her questions about what guns types and quanities you keep in your house, that information is also property of the federal government.

My wife and I just agreed we would not be sharing that information with our doctors.

[Mygirlsmom]

LOL Megan!

[Jackson Brown]

"the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.”

Doctors who ask this question are doing this for their own reasons/agenda, there is no mandate for him to ask or me to answer -- medical or other -- to do so.

MY doctor would never ask. If I go to a doctor (specialists, etc.) that does ask, he is going to get more questions from me than he will ever want to deal with. I'll tie him up till he says never mind.

Look up oppositional defiant disorder in the DSM IV. That kind of answer will get you reported to the feds as being “mentally ill” and prohibited from gun ownership.

You are absoutely correct, while it my be entertaining to post defiant comments here, in fact just LIE

[fso301]

No doc, there aren’t any guns in my home. It’s that easy.

It goes far beyond that. The doctor will ask your children. The doctor will ask your children if they know if any of their friends have guns. All of that then goes into a massive database that never forgets.
