This whole thing could have turned out so tragic.I don't blame them for taking her home if she had not been caught driving drunk or doing anything more than being drunk in the bar. Most friends would do that for each other, but there is a huge difference between having a couple drinks and drinking to get unconscious. In the latter case, she should not have been armed and they just didn't seem to consider checking her for a weapon. We don't excuse the decision to drive a car drunk. The decision to carry a weapon drunk isn't much different no matter who you are. From eleven years with an alcoholic, though, I know they rarely seem to develop much wisdom.
