Feels like we live in bizarro world seeing the government argue that a law banning drunks from owning guns is historically analogous to a law that prohibits drug users, considering they do not prohibit you from owning a gun if you drink a handle a day.

Don't get me wrong either, I'm not saying that the government should expand the definition of prohibited persons to include people who drink occasionally or even have minor alcohol problems either, I think that'll open up a wide can of worms that we aren't looking for. But it makes no sense to bring up a law that prohibits habitual drunkards from owning firearms if you refuse to even do that for especially dangerous alcohol addicts
