Hey Killer,
"One of my concerns on this issue is about federal laws with gun ownership and MJ. For the feds its an immediate felony. Which is exactly why we have the 10th Amendment. The feds have no jusrisdiction in these cases and every federal charge that was used that didn't involve crossing state lines is unconstitutional and all prisoners should be released. "

So federally, it's completely illegal for a mmj patient to possess a gun/weapon, but does our state laws protect us? Anyone who isn't a felon may obtain a Concealed weapons permit, so does that become invalid if you obtain a mmj card?

Graywolf says: "Taking life in defense of property is illegal, but if you are legitimately and serously concerned about the welfare of you and your family and the person invades your home, make that clear to the reporting officer and hire a good attorney to make your case."

It's just sad you have to fight for your life (at the residence during a break in, AND in court). If you kill an intruder, I guess you better not score a headshot. If you empty the clip, you'd have to be convincing that you where scared out of your mind. But I completely agree, you can't leave any survivors to sue your ass. ..... Where I live, I've heard 1-2 gunshots and police don't show up promptly, but if you empty a clip.... you may have 2-3 minutes at the most.
I know someone with an authorization and a concealed permit that is still current as of this date to my knowledge. Just don't brandish it or flash it in a threatening or intimidating manner that is a crime in Washington state, along with clubs, swords, bottles, and other numerous weapons from the late 1800s-early 1900s.. :thumbsup:
