Normally level-headed, controlled people losing it over a nothing argument after a few stiff drinks. <BR/><BR/>I don't think this is a real problem because you just don't hear about CCW holders getting plastered and shooting up the neighborhood...responsible gun owners don't drink and carry whether it's legal or not...but if it's a concession we have to make to get the restaurant bans lifted, I'd be all for it.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, I don't think it will ever happen. The sound bite "Guns and alcohol don't mix" just resonates way too much among the sheeple for the idea of lifting the bans to get any legs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
