Should doctors be able to question about guns at home?

I just read this via a friend’s recommendation. She, as a future pediatrician, is really pissed off at this ruling (though I’m pretty sure it just affects Florida, for now). I’m kind of wondering what the push behind this kind of law anyway – were there people upset that their pediatricians or doctors were asking about gun and gun safety and felt this was more of an intrusion than, say, asking about drug use or smoking? And in a way, is this not ironic given that when it comes to other topics like abortion or birth control, doctors have been supported in providing their personal opinions on the topic and withholding treatment if they felt their beliefs told them otherwise? Thoughts?
