A MMJ card and a gun do not go hand in hand

[VapedG13]

I guess alot of people who get their MMJ card dont realize that they are giving up thier right to own or carry a handgun.

Guess what bros....You get your MMJ Card .....you are now a "REGISTERED" user of marijuana...You give up your right to "LEGALLY" buy or carry any guns

Is it legal to have a medical marijuana prescription and purchase a firearm? No.
Look at the BATFE's 4473 form, called the Yellow Sheet, which you must fill out when purchasing a firearm through a dealer.
http://www.thundertek.net/documents/4473.pdf
Look at question 12 e. It asks a purchaser: â??Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana, or any depressant, stimulant, or narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?â?�
Remember, this is a federal form, so itâ??s asking if the purchaser is a user to a (federally deemed) unlawful substance. Federal law still considers the use marijuana illegal. So, a legal Colorado user of marijuana could not answer 12 e. with a â??Noâ?�. And if you answer â??Yesâ?�, you canâ??t buy a firearm from a dealer.
Also, the 1968 Gun Control Act says (TITLE 18 > PART I > CHAPTER 44 > § 922) click here for a link:
(d) It shall be unlawful for any person to sell or otherwise dispose of any firearm or ammunition to any person knowing or having reasonable cause to believe that such personâ??
(3) is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance (as defined in section 102 of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 802));

Can someone who has a medical marijuana prescription possess a firearm? No.
18 U.S.C. § 922 (g)(3) and 21 U.S.C. § 802 both prohibit anyone who is a user or is addicted to any controlled substance, including marijuana, from possessing, owning, purchasing, receiving, or having within his custody any firearms.

Can someone who has a medical marijuana prescription get a concealed handgun permit? No.
From Colorado Revised Statutes, 18-12-203
Criteria for obtaining a permit
(f) Is not an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance as defined in section 18-18-102 (5). Whether an applicant is an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance shall be determined as provided in federal law and regulations.
So, on every CCW application, you'll see this question:



"Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana, or any depressant, stimulant, or narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?"

So, unless federal law is changed, application for a permit usually is denied, since federal law still considers the use of marijuana unlawful

That would probably disqualify about 99% of the adult population of the United States and it's territories from owning a firearm.

[copobo]

that is why the registry is supposed to be confidential

Silly stoners....if you have to register with the State of Colorado for your mmj card.....who do you think runs and approves the gun application...the State of Colorado.

And you all thought we were getting more freedom........shit

Legally anyone with a MMJ card.....is not allowed to own a gun...definatley not allowed to have a concealed weapons permit

If you get busted for growing medical marijuana ...say in your house and you have weapon.... thats a whole different felony charge just for having the weapon

To quote your source: "THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE." Quote something fucking real, like an example, not just someone's 'best guess.'

Another place where this all played out recently, Oregon, local sheriff attempted to interpret things in the manner you suggest, but the court allowed the mmj grower/user to keep their concealed weapons permit. So smoke it up and shoot it up. :thumbsup:

the entire quote is

It should not be misconstrued as legal advice, but rather as an amalgamation of experiences of RMGO staff, members and gun rights activists

whose knowlege is very accurate

In today's newspaper OREGON ... someone busted growing with a gun got a felony weapons charge Lincoln County man busted for growing marijuana | The Portland Press Herald / Maine Sunday Telegram

Of course state to state laws differ...but federal law remains the same

the only way you get a concealed weapons permit is to lie

The individual got charged according to the story as an ex-Felon in possession of a weapon & does not appear to be a MMJ Grow, so I see 2 issues:

1) Illegal Marijuana Grow
2) ex-felon possessing weapon (this is illegal without the growing charge)

Thus this reference does not provide any insite as to possessing as a MMJ user of Medicine & Legality of Possessing a Legal Firearm.

I personally know a registry card holder who was denied a gun purchase. He was told "guns and marijuana don't mix". I think that the idea of privacy is nice but naive.

Privacy went away with the take over of america by the multinational corporate powers that be. Get used to it.
