Docs vs. Glocks

"Less than a month before Florida hosts the Republican National Convention, the state's right-wing governor is pushing for an unusual law that privileges the Second Amendment over the First Amendment. Gov. Rick Scott announced Monday that his administration will pursue a court appeal to defend the state's controversial "Docs vs. Glocks" law, which makes it a crime for doctors to ask patients if they own guns. The 2011 "Firearm Owners' Privacy Act"—one of a series of NRA-backed, aggressive pro-gun laws passed by Florida's conservative Legislature in recent years—aims at keeping physicians from gathering information on patients' weapons while discussing their health risk factors..."* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

This is pretty much the definition of insanity.

Get rid of the fucking lobbyists and get money out of politics so these assholes actually serve the public.

[lerronevampire]

But you have cartels those guys pretty much control the country

[degenret01]

I thought "docs vs Glocks" would be about how docs kill 20 times more people than guns do.

Not in Florida. You only require to not be a felon or have any weapon possession blocks on you(such as ones by doctors claiming your unstable)

[jimmyhoffa9]

Several mass shootings could potentially have been prevented had docs asked mentally unstable patients if they owned guns, or obtained that information so that they could put one of those gun ban thingies on for unstable people.

[darkmater4tm]

Aren't they supposed to have a license for it anyway? Or is it one of those places where bazookas are consumer goods?

[MyTemporaryAccount88]

I just watched a 1-hour documentary on North Korea, and this story still sounded completely fucked up to me. Dammit NRA-lobbied laws, you're in-fucking-sane!
