    Since when are pediatricians experts on firearms safety?

    "One year ago I wrote an article about how Florida's state legislature had passed a law prohibiting doctors from discussing gun safety at pediatric visits. The law drew immediate and strong objection from all the major medical organizations, including my own, the American Academy of Pediatrics. Reason seemed to prevail, as the US District Court quickly handed down an injunction against the gag law."

    Happy ending.

    Very happy. Gun owners lie and say they have no guns, and doctors are never the wiser. Problem solved. More waste of time on the government's part.

    The injunction is real, however. :D

    Sure is! Real and toothless. The best kind of injunction.

    You don't sound that happy in your first reply to the subject:

    Take your privacy violations and shove them up your ass.

    That was in answer to the "why" question asked. As if it wasn't obvious. Thanks for playing!

    So the gov't and the medical profession team up to stick it to the NRA and its gun owning members.

    Similar to how the cop dept's teamed up with the federal gov't to militarize just in case they needed bigger guns against the tea party.

    So what about all those guns in inner city black communities? Are the docs gonna ask about the guns and then start reporting en masse all the depressed and anxious people with guns to the authorities?

    It's just like Ferguson. If the docs started reporting dangerous situations in the black community there would be a huge outcry about the unfairness of it all and the docs and cops would be told to stand down while people were being shot at. Because after all, this was all about getting the NRA, not the black community. That would be racist.
