Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring:
There shallow draughts intoxicate the brain,
And drinking largely sobers us again.”

And advocates for everyone to have any and all guns desired seem not to have read the all-important clause in the Second Amendment regarding “a well-regulated militia.”
Drink deep, and sober up.
