4. Well, that should cull the herd a little.

And no, not because it's in the South. It's a bad mix anywhere.

5. I foresee absolutely no problems from this.

What's more sane and stable than a drunken gun freak?

7. As someone who lived there for many years, this does not surprise me.

Drunks with loaded guns. I won't be there.

9. Bad link. Here's one

http://www.thedailymeal.com/georgia-gun-club-offers-alcohol-serving-lounge

Opening in late December or early January is the newest gun range, The Governor’s Club, in Powder Springs, Ga. And attached to the gun range is lounge that serves alcohol to its members. According to its owners, guests will have their ID cards marked upon entering the lounge, rendering them unable to return to the gun range for the rest of the day. While firearms are not allowed inside the lounge — lockers are available for members to stash their weapons — members are allowed to pick up their firearms when leaving the lounge.

In answer to obvious concerns about weapon possession and inebriation, the owners nod to a Georgia law stating that individuals with gun permits are allowed to bring their weapons into restaurants serving alcohol. They also plan to follow standard measures for most gun clubs, including background checks and contracts for members. Still, some community members remain concerned about the radical facility.

10. Oh.....this should end well

11. OK, Im going to lock this one.

It's about alcohol and guns, but mostly about guns. It belongs in the RKBA Group, rather than in GD. Besides, the link you provided produces an error, and the story is not at that link. Please repost in RKBA with a working link. It should stimulate a discussion there, I'm sure.
