		<description>OMRBH said....&quot;So far, I’ve not been asked by a doctor if there are firearms in my house. If a dr. should ever ask such a question, I would answer with a question. “What does that have to do with the medical services that you provide?” If he then gave me a long story about why he needs to know, I would answer something to the effect that I felt it was none of his business and that we need to get on with a treatment plan.&quot;

I said...There you go, my friend. Thank you. That&#039;s all it takes. We don&#039;t need to spend taxpayer money writing, debating and passing this law. This is just more wasteful spending.If it&#039;s a privacy issue, as some have said, then just keep it private. Simple. Easy.</description>

Oh, I did have a doctor comment one time that my name was similar to that of a firearm company.........I played dumb ;-)</description>

		<description>Sandra said...&quot;Do you understand what irony even means?&quot;

I said...(laughter) I can&#039;t believe you have the chutzpah to ask that after that weak attempt to create &quot;irony&quot; between doctors and guns.

This is not a &quot;right to privacy&quot; issue. No one can &quot;make&quot; you give this information. When your doctor does a history on you do you just sit with your mouth shut and refuse to answer? You can, you know. It may be a surprise to you that you will not go to prison for doing so, though you may have to find another doctor.

A doctor should be able to ask you whatever he/she wants. You don&#039;t have to answer. To insist otherwise is to put constraints on their freedom to run their business as they see fit. That&#039;s Communism.

This is about fear among my fellow gun owners. It is disconcerting to see such paranoia in the land of the free and the home of the brave.</description>

		<description>Maybe the doctor needs to ask if you have a gun in the house if you seem to be a harm to yourself or to your family. Hey, they are out there! Mentally unstable, drug addicts. All you worried about gun control are just gobbling up what NRA  is feeding you FEAR, without bases. NRA is more about gun sales than gun rights!
Its not that I don&#039;t fully believe in your right to bear arm, but come on, NRA is going to far. FEAR, FEAR, FEAR ==== MORE GUNS SOLD!</description>

		<description>Do you understand what irony even means?     This is a basic right to privacy issue.   The fact that I own guns or not has no bearing on my health and that is what a doctor supposedly is concerned with.   Gun ownership is none of his business.    If you are okay with the slow erosion of your privacy then by all means tell your doctor everything you can that has no direct bearing on your health.</description>

		<description>Sandra said...&quot;Doctors kill more people yearly than guns…..see the irony?&quot;

The irony here is that you and others don&#039;t seem to understand the issue at all. No one is talking about gun control. I own guns and I&#039;m not terrified of my doctor asking me if I do. I&#039;ll say yes, won&#039;t answer, or I&#039;ll find another doctor as the mood strikes me.

The irony is that all these well armed people are so frightened that they would rather have our legislature working on this nonsensical piece of legislation than on substantive issues.

The irony is that you are being played. Evers and others like him know that you will vote to keep in office anyone who shouts &quot;Gimme a gun! I love the NRA&quot;. C&#039;mon Sandra. Lose your fear and think for yourself.

See the irony?</description>

		<description>This is a stupid law, how many times as your doctor asked you about gun ownership? My bet is never

Its like passing a law that prevents your doctor from asking you what your fav color is. It makes no sense</description>

		<description>AC said...&quot;You do not get to choose my lifestyle, my hobbies, my interests, or where I work. It’s OK to tell me I need to lose weight, eat better, or if I smoke, drink, or do drugs (I don’t BTW) that I need to stop because it is detrimental to my health. &quot;

I said...Actually AC&#039;s other post at 2:41PM is even more absurd than this one but I could not point out all the ridiculous statements in that one if our word limit was twice the current level.

First of all, let me say that it disappoints me to see my fellow gun owners show so much fear and paranoia about a *potential* question. I have never been asked about guns by any doctor. If this question did arise, I could refuse to answer or change doctors. People in this country are truly terrified if they think this silly non issue should be addressed before the many serious problems we face.

Secondly, wouldn&#039;t telling you to lose weight, stop smoking, drinking or doing drugs infringe upon your lifestyle? Yet you say a doctor has no right to choose your lifestyle.You may want to take another look at your position here. It&#039;s insensible as written.</description>

		<description>@XYZ 

Who cares should be the people who support our second amendment rights, and those who care that local governments across the state are trying to impose tougher gun laws on us. Rep. Broxson apparently only cares about his neighborhood in Gulf Breeze, not the tens of thousands of gun owners in his district including those in North Escambia.</description>
