A doctor speaks out on Obama efforts to get doctors involved in his gun control policies
Dr. Manny Alvarez has this discussion at Fox News:
One of the 23 executive actions Obama approved Wednesday was to "clarify" that the federal health care overhaul "does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes."
An overview of the plan said "we should never ask doctors and other health care providers to turn a blind eye to the risks posed by guns in the wrong hands."
Coupled with the language on asking patients about guns was a decision to "clarify" that no federal law prevents doctors from warning law enforcement about "direct and credible threats of violence."
Physicians are already overwhelmed with bureaucratic rules and regulations that they are responsible for, which continues to limit their ability to practice medicine. . . .
So, you see, Mr. President, we are just too busy to become a regulatory line in your gun control debate. . . .

Angry white gun owners are causing great concern among mental health specialists, once devout family men are now attaching more importance to the need of assault weapons. Thousands of the nation’s leading social workers and psychologists should be dispatched to the homes of white gun owners and report back to the president after a survey of grievances is completed.
