Paul Armentano, deputy director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws, said the idea that marijuana users were more prone to violence is a fallacy.

"Responsible adults who use cannabis in a manner that is compliant with the laws of their states ought to receive the same legal rights and protections as other citizens," he said.

Alex Kreit, a marijuana law expert at Thomas Jefferson School of Law in San Diego, said the ruling was significant — but may not be the last time the 9th Circuit addresses medical marijuana and gun rights.

"It seems like the court did not foreclose the possibility of a challenge by actual medical marijuana users that they shouldn't be lumped with other drug users in terms of concerns about violence," he said.

Marijuana is a mind altering drug. So is alcohol and guns are banned in bars.

But are guns banned for purchase from anyone that consumes alcohol? Or from people who doctors prescribe oxycontin to?

No, but the purchase of alcohol and oxycontin are legal, MJ is not with a few exceptions.

For the record, 4 states are okay with drunks having their guns with them in bars.

I din`t say they were all "drunks" but alcohol and firearms are a bad mix.
 
More laws restricting the natural rights of citizens that haven't done a thing to infringe on the rights of another.

More and more every year.

We need a law outlawing more laws.

I agree you didn't say ALL.
"For the record, 4 states are okay with drunks having their guns with them in bars."

I tend to agree that guns and alcohol don't mix, but it is restricted to those that have a concealed carry permit.
 
But medical marijuana is legal in some states so why should they be banned from buying a gun in those states? If people who are prescribed oxycontin can purchase guns in the same states?

That's dumb. I can't believe we're approaching 100 years of marijuana being banned entirely due blatant lies by a handful of powerful racists. 100 years, and some people haven't learned anything and are still completeley ignorant and terrified of it.
 
I get it. I don't agree with it but MJ is illegal at the federal level..
Of course, this shit shouldn't be outlawed anyways. Buncha damn fascists. There is much stronger "mind altering substances" that are legal. Only difference is, weed is natural. People got to make money over anything, right?
Now, go vote for some more shitty politicians because you don't have a "choice"

Look it up. The cornerstone of the anti-weed campaign was basically that black people were using it to drug up and rape your white daughters.

Why? Because in the opinion of the state legislators and Governor of those states it became the law.

A quote by Harry Anslinger, head of what back then was basically the DEA, and the leading voice in the fight to criminalize marijuana:

"There are 100,000 total marijuana smokers in the US, and most are Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers. Their Satanic music, jazz and swing, result from marijuana usage. This marijuana causes white women to seek sexual relations with Negroes, entertainers and any others."

It's wrong oxycontin is like heroin. Why should those who are prescribed that be allowed to purchase guns but those who are prescribed medical marijuana are not. This is not a good law at all.
