Forced speech. Interesting.

DeBlasio having the state seize apartment buildings if the landlord is enforcing the rules in tenant leases.

Telling doctors to find out if patient is a gun owner.

Stopping voting officials from asking “Are you a citizen of the United States?”

Yelling at, pushing, roughing up Trump supporters for wearing a hat or shirt expressing that in public (rally,resaturant,sidewalk).

Can’t recall the name of that socialist country that has that head shaking stuff going on.

Oh yeah.

“the United States of America.”

No way.

“Doc. Why are you questioning me on my constitutional rights? Are you a lawyer too... I came in here because of (whatever you came in for) nothing else I will discuss with you”

Same here. I wonder if it was once a Medicare rule.

“Just because the Dr is required to ask does mean that you are required to answer.”
Not yet.
I remember reading or hearing about a dentist that would report families to child protective services when they didn’t return their children for recommended treatment.

Been moving into a communist dictatorship for many years. Only Trump saw this and is making many changes back to a Constitutional land.

My standard answer was “Break in some night and find out. If you walk out, I don’t. If you are carried out I do.”

Problem with lying is that it undermines your credibility on other matters. Find a way to answer that is not a lie. Leave the lying to others.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`

I’ve been asked some weird questions like this when going into the emergency room.

Once when going in for a really bad cold they asked if I felt safe going to my home environment. I told them I have cats and you can never really feel safe with those dastardly creatures around.

I’ve been asked if anyone close to me has hit me lately. NOYFB.

Last August I was in for a concussion. They asked me if I felt like hitting someone. I said...Do you mean just today?? Then I just shook my head and ignored them.

I’m a smart ass so I would never answer their stupid questions but I’m sure most would.

"...Are you an attorney? Are you questioning my Constitutional rights?..."


The doctor just marked your response as YES on the yes/no form with subsequent entry in a federal database.
My preference is to smile, be nice, and then gladly misinform the government about PRIVATE firearms ownership.

Most doctors today don’t have time to treat whatever you’re there for much less deal with our private lives which are none of their damn business.

Most people I talk to have very little faith in their doctors these days who are nothing more than pharmaceutical salesmen. All they do is hand out prescriptions made in some third-world cesspool with side effects that damage you for life.

Valsartan for BP anyone laced with cancer-causing ingredients?

All my doctors are in Boston (I'm old,I have lots of them).I've been with them all for a long time so we know each other.There's no way that I'll answer that question!

When gun owners can give doctors advice on Medicine it should be fair enough.

This is a losing situation for physicians. Ask a patient if he/she owns guns, get a positive response. Teach the patient about gun safety, and then the patient proceeds to commit suicide or perform a violent act with the gun. Who gets sued?
Of course, physicians would then be required to take a gun safety course which they will have to pay out if pocket to maintain their license.
I can bet most of them do not want this liability.
