Docs v. Glocks, Round 1 – Central Florida Political Pulse – Orlando Sentinel

Docs v. Glocks, Round 1 – Central Florida Political Pulse – Orlando Sentinel: "TALLAHASSEE — Doctors would be barred from asking most of their patients if they own guns under a measure that passed in a House panel on Tuesday after it was amended in response to doctors’ concerns – though not enough to win over the medical establishment.

By a 9-6 vote, the House Criminal Justice Subcommittee approved a National Rifle Association-backed bill sponsored by Rep. Jason Brodeur, R-Sanford. The proposal would bar physicians, nurses and other medical personnel in non-emergency settings from asking patients if there are guns in the home, a query backers say oversteps a physician’s authority and infringes on Second Amendment gun rights."
