I must have misread this part of your original post.

Wes wrote:Did I ever say I was then continuing to drive? No I didn't. Using your logic that a person can't have even the means to access the firearm when drinking would mean no one with a firearm in their home could ever drink. Let's think about this.

I did think about it. In your own home you're not concerned with a Leo catching you carrying while intoxicated. Thus, no need to go lock up
your gun in a glove box. Hopefully you won't drive, and just pass out in bed instead.
We obviously have different views on alcohol consumption and impairment. I'll let it go at that.

Wes, not trying to pick a fight....but....if you lock up your gun in the glove box....do you
then give the car/truck keys to someone else? A drunk driver is a deadly driver. If you "feel it (alcohol)" and you realize you need to NOT be carrying a sidearm..... wouldn't it make sense to not crawl behind the wheel of a car/truck?
I'm not accusing you of driving impaired, but putting up a gun to then resume drinking or immediately get behind the wheel. Let's think about this.
