When getting a handgun license or registering a firearm in some states there can be questions like "are you a habitual drunkard" and "Are you an addict or habitual user of a controlled dangerous substance?" Lying about this can end up being a felony, at least in Maryland where I pulled the above two questions from.

Do they really word it that way? That's stupid broad. Applied for a IT Position for a local PD decades ago, the wording was very clearly "Have you ever done any illegal drugs; List every instance and explain".

I did not end up applying.
