While I see the concerns as real. Somehow I smell the smoke of a TROLL  under this bridge.
Anyone answering this  should realize there is no good answer to the question.
Perhaps the sender should decide for themselves & act appropriately.
If you're that worried, you should care enough to act.

: I am a pro gun owner, so don't get this message wrong.  Recently,

: 
: My concern is this.  Both the person and his wife are nice people
: but they drink and smoke marijauna often.  If the wife were to
: become depressed after the divorce, drink and smoke up a lot, and
: one day figure her kids have no future, might this not affect her
: judgement?   
: 
: Neither the husband nor wife are violent, and I believe they have a
: "right" to own guns, but the fact that this person obtained all of
: the guns in the LAST YEAR is of concern.
: 
: Another concern is that depression tends to take quite a toll on
: people, and people who take drugs and liquor regularly tend to do so
: because "everyday life" is too difficult to cope with without some
: degree of mind alteration.  In this case, everyday life, at least
: for the mother, will become much more complicated.
: 
: My question is this:   Why isn't there a question, anywhere on the
: gun form, about how often people take drugs and/or liquor, what
: kinds they take, and how often and how much?  The form asks only
: about "prescribed" drugs.
: 
: Can any drunk person or drug user qualify for a gun as long as he
: hasn't been convicted?
: 
: As any woman who has divorced knows, a woman with three kids,
: suddenly on her own, and without much education is headed for a few
: years of extreme depression.
