You can't own a firearm if you have a medical marijuana card

This is supposedly the law in all of the states where you can buy weed legally and is in fine print on the paper that you sign when you get your medical marijuana. This is just another way for our government to control firearms I'm guessing?

Had to edit for this.....

Some states have issued their own laws in addition to this ruling. For example, a recent ruling in Oregon allowed medical marijuana gun owners to receive a concealed carry license. On the other hand, Florida recently ruled that a medical marijuana patient could not legally purchase a firearm.

Well since marijuana makes people violent maybe it’s for the best. Law enforcement across the country knows this, this is why they oppose legalization.

I know it’s that way in Arkansas.

Not sure if its for a hand gun or all guns though.

Sure does sound kinda infringy to me.

But you can have testicles and be hopped up on estrogen.

What if your rx is for pain management or cancer treatment side effects?

If you catch non hopkins lymphoma you can’t go duck hunting?

Like I said, infringy. It will eventually get challenged and in court.

The Supremacy Clause has been in our constitution since its founding. Marijuana is illegal federally therefore the state’s view is obsolete.

ETA: just stating a fact, I am not agreeing with the governments definition of a prohibited person

Medical marijuana has alway made me

What does the government ever make better and cost less? The dispensaries in recreational states are capitalist and fine, but Uncle Sam weed I would imagine is junk. You can source better shite at a coffee house, or the bus boys at Chili's.

I wouldn't deny you for those reasons, but at some point I think we need to address mental health and gun access.

I’ve always had a problem with “medical” marijuana. At no point should a doctor tell you to put smoke in your lungs.

There are plenty of other ways a doctor can prescribe THC without someone having to put smoke in their lungs.

Shooting while eating 5 bags of Funyuns is dangerous.

That's the rub. You say your Constitutional rights were infringed because you were denied access to something that is illegal Federally.

Why, though? What's your logic? Doctors prescribe plenty of things that are bad for you if you over indulge.

There is a question on the 4473 form when purchasing a firearm that asks if you’re addicted to marijuana. This has been the case since I’ve been alive. I don’t necessarily agree with it, but it is what it is. This is coming from someone who owns NFA items, so I’ve had to go beyond the 4473 when purchasing some things

That's why I buy all mine illegally.

The guns, that is.
