Insult much?
We're all big boys and can make our own life choices. Granted i haven't always made the best choices in life this isn't something i see as a bad idea. Will one drink cause you to spray and prey? Probably not. Am i unfit to fire a gun after a drink? Probably not. Some? Yes. This is a personal choice. If you don't like someone "drinking" and carrying, move to another country. Do you not drive after one beer? The chances of you causing an accident after a beer are far greater than you removing your gun from the holster and accidentally shooting someone. I've been REALLY DRINKING today so my gun is locked up. I DON'T ADVOCATE BEING DRINKING AND CARRYING. I also don't think you have to be prim and proper to carry.
This goes along with many feelings of... "don't OC at a 2A rally it'll make the liberals upset", " we should all wear suits to the rally to show we're professional".... i have a right to carry, for any 2A advocate to limit that right in any way, shape or form makes them an Anti in my eyes....
I hope noone takes this as a direct challenge, just stating my opinion as guaranteed by the first amendment and protected by the second.
I know this is something 90% of gun owners won't agree with me on. But it's how i feel and live.
Not intended as an insult, by being of the 90% persuasion, I'm merely making an observation.

IMHO,
1 Beer ain't gonna hurt anyone, provided nothing comes up ! Anyone who decides to partake in an activity which leaves them susceptible to
letting their guard down (*) is asking for trouble.
I don't know your personal business, (married, children, job) however, we need to be *Responsible* citizens as a whole. Especially now during these turbulent times concerning the 2A thang.
*Responsible* to me being defined as, Since I now Choose to "CARRY" a Firearm on a regular basis, I realise that MY Decisions (being good OR bad) concerning that I am Now an Armed Citizen WILL most certainly reflect on the General Status of Others who have also made the same decision which I made some time ago.
So don't feel as though I am attacking Your choices in Your life which You make, I just don't see the necessity in muddying up the 2A waters any more than they already have been.
This
following is my overall outlook and how I am hoping to be prepared should *STUFF* start to happen.
>>>* Situational Awareness * <<< ;
Involves, being observant, scanning and evaluating our surroundings, accepting without question that danger can come suddenly and with no warning whatsoever, and recognizing the potential for danger as it approaches, while developing a plan to either defend against the danger, or to just get away from the danger as quickly as possible, without wasting time asking oneself, “Is this really happening?”. Because by the time you are busy asking yourself that question, the answer is already “Yes.”
Peace & Carry Safe :exclaim:
