    | Florida Gov. Rick Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi made the right decision to not challenge a federal appeals court ruling that quashed a state law prohibiting medical doctors from asking patients about guns in their homes.  Florida’s Firearms Owners Privacy Act, enacted by the Republican-led Legislature and Scott in 2011, and nicknamed the “docs vs. Glocks” law, was an overblown reaction to a minute matter facing gun owners. Now, since Scott and Bondi let lapse last month’s deadline to respond to a February ruling by the U.S. 11th Circuit Court, doctors may treat patients more fully without, contrary to claims by some gun-rights activists, diminishing gun owners’ rights.

    | They can ask, but I'm not going to tell.  And if they ask we, the patients, can go elsewhere.

                      | To prohibit a citizen from wearing or carrying a war arm . . . is an unwarranted restriction upon the constitutional right to keep and bear arms. If cowardly and dishonorable men sometimes shoot unarmed men with army pistols or guns, the evil must be prevented by the penitentiary and gallows, and not by a general deprivation of constitutional privilege. [Wilson v. State, 33 Ark. 557, at 560, 34 Am. Rep. 52, at 54 (1878)] |  |  |
