The new medical question......

[AIRret]

There's a new question on many medical forms; Do you own a GUN?

How do you answer?

I feel it's an invasion of privacy but I don't want to make a big deal about it for fear of being sent to anger management class or worse!
I just say sure, doesn't everybody.

[Bawanna]

I'd just put Can't remember. Or yes but I don't know where it is.

Or maybe the best would be yes, would you like to see it.

[Longitude Zero]

I answer Dunno!

Answer: None of your business.

The new medical question......

"Yes I own a gun. Doesn't every intelligent person?"

suppress first instinctive response and just leave blank or N/A

[RevRay]

suppress first instinctive response and just leave blank or N/A

That would be my approach ... if a question shouldn't be asked ... it shouldn't be answered.

When they really want to know they will ask the children if their parents own them.

The new medical question......

Could pull a Bill Clinton and say it depends on what your definition of OWN means.

Hubby and I talked about using something like that.
I brought up the topic to give my Husband some potential answers.
For me it is a none issue since both of my Doctors shoot and we talk about it from time to time.
