    I always answer 'no' to the doctor and to the door-to-door and telephone pollsters.

    None of their business. I'm under counted but vote 2A at every election.

    Reminds me of a time I took my mother to the doctor for her pre-op appointment. The nurse asked, "Do you drink?" She replied, "Yes." The nurse then asked, "How much?" She replied, "As much as I want." Ended it right there. I was sitting in the corner trying not to pass out holding my breath to keep from laughing.

    Two people you never lie to... your lawyer and your doctor. A rule I live by. I don't care about my doctor knowing I have/carry a gun. No big deal to me. I don't think my doctor care one way or the other either.
    Judging by today's left wing, looks like Senator Joe McCarthy was right after all.

    Sadly I doubt the doctor even sees the questions or answers. Usually a nurse that ask them and then they probably go directly to Waffen SS headquarters Attn: Take your guns r Us.

    I think I would put "I have a BB gun." which I do. It answers the question, and I am not lying. Wonder what they would do with that info?

    HY*NDAI is to cars, what Caracal, Hi-Point, and Jennings is to handguns. The cars may or may not run ok, but the corporation SUCKS.

    To the specific issue of the medical offices asking, I've never had that happen to me.

    However, my nephrologist & my GP (husband & wife) know the truth because I carry all the time. They are good folks, believe like us & we're all members of the same church. If my doctor personally asked me, I'd probably talk. If a clerk pushed a form at me, I'd leave it blank just like I leave the SSN field blank.
