Anybody can ask - it's up to me how to answer. Isn't there a statistic somewhere about docs doing more harm than weapons do?

Absolutely. Even John Tesh's program aired a blurb about being twice as likely to die if you visit the hospital for any reason than if you stay at home.

Of course buried in there somewhere is that most people don't go to the hospital unless they really need to...

My physician has never asked me about guns...h e knows my viewpoint and I think shares it.

My physician is an avid shooter. We talk shop, what little we can get in during our max session limit.
