My recommendations: (1) Don't rely on federal funds for your personal medical care, if you need any. (2) Don't talk to a doctor who stores patients' identity information on a computer. (3) If a doctor asks you whether you own a gun, and is not treating you for a gunshot wound or a psychotic disorder, say, "Bad question."
Then, if the doctor doesn't back down immediately, show him/her a printout of this article:

Tell the doctor that s/he is overstepping his/her boundaries and in violation of your constitutional rights. Do not employ that doctor again.
Even if you don't own a gun. Even if you don't, personally, happen to like guns.
I reserve the right to date and/or marry men who carry guns everywhere. I even reserve the right to fire a gun if I think it's necessary. I also reserve the right to arm myself with primary weapons that work better for me and my astigmatic eyes. But that's none of the business of anyone whom I might hire, in real life, to test my blood for an infection or set a broken bone.
The price of liberty is vigilance. And personal responsibility. If you want to be a free citizen in a constitutional democracy, your responsibilities include saying no to handouts that are now being used to encroach upon your rights.
