Newsplex - HomePage - Headlines  Senate Wants to Curb Drinking
and Hunting   Virginia's General Assembly is considering a bill
that would make it illegal for hunters to have more than trace
amounts of alcohol in their system.  Some gun owners say the
bill is unconstitutional. It's already illegal in Virginia to
“hunt with firearms'' when under the influence of alcohol or
drugs. But the Senate bill further clarifies the state code so
that a hunter with a blood alcohol content of .02 would be
guilty of a misdemeanor.  The state's drunken driving standard
is .08. A House committee will hear the legislation this week.
