I was admitted in the ER (good Samaritan) on Wednesday and out of all the questions they asked me they never asked if I had any guns.

"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"
My feedback
Did you bother asking the doctor why that question is on there?
Because I did. And they told me it is just so they can provide pamphlets on securing a gun to keep it out of the hands of children.
I never tell the truth...
Under Obamacare, your health records (including these forms and your answers) are no longer protected information at the level they used to be and are available to many levels of the government. When the information is compiled into a database it's a simple matter of finding the listing of those who answered "yes" to that question.
Given that a null answer can be filled in for you with a yes, my response is always "no" which is short for "None of your damned business". I love that the military taught me to abbreviate.

I have heard that some places will indeed fill in yes for you if you refuse to answer; don't know if this is true or not but now I always answer NO.

I hope you realize she just checked the yes box for you after you made a big deal about it. It's easier to check no and move on. EDIT: derp, what he said^^.
