How about folks who “use” a few beers or a shot of whiskey during happy hours at bars and restaurants all across America- are they stripped of their natural rights?
How about folks who “use” fermented grapes during trips to wine country in Eastern, WA?- no more firearms for them?
With federal approval:

Do people who take legal drugs that may bring on thoughts of suicide loose the ability to purchase or possess firearms?
