It is getting ridiculous. A friend of mine said they asked him if he had
any guns in his house. He refused, and said he was there for medical
reasons, not political ones.

Now, when I go to the doctor, the first thing they ask is "Are you in a
relationship where anyone is abusing you?"

I have watched several you tube videos that people take of traffic stops,
and in them are specific instructions as to just what it is you have to do
regarding providing your license, rolling down the window, getting out of
the car, etc. It seems that there is a lot you DON'T have to do, and lots
of things LEOs do that are questionable. It seems people's rights are
being violated by them not being advised that they do have a choice when
being asked to do some of the things they are asked to do.

I don't speed. I have a damn fine driving record, driving 50+ years now.
I am getting a little aggravated with this new school uber policeman with
twelve pounds of gear, including a $450 flashlight. Bald heads, $300
sunglasses, looking just a bit intimidating, rather than the friendly
"serve and protect" image, or even good old Barney Fife. They want you to
be ultra respective with them, yet I have seen cases where they treat
people like dirt in a third world country. There has been a lot of
officers lose their jobs, and a lot of video taken of LEOs acting shall we
say inappropriately, and in some cases, criminally treating people.

I know it's a tough job, and I couldn't do it. But it's just getting a
little scary with what all the "government" and the police are asking us
to provide to them in relatively peaceful non-threatening situations.

What should I say if I am asked the gun question? If I am silent, then am
I put into the Group W folder with mother stabbers and father rapers? What
the hell does owning a gun have to do with anything?



You ****ing idiot.

If you don't like the questions that your doctor asks, then either get
yourself a different doctor, or better yet, go without.
