The Supreme Court will consider whether people who regularly smoke marijuana can legally own guns, the latest firearm case to come before the court since its 2022 decision expanding gun rights
If everyone else gets guns, then weed smokers get guns too, otherwise it’s a very convenient way to selectively apply gun restrictions to specific groups of people.
yeah, i agree the disparity is shit. there is no legitimate reason to treat weed smokers differently. if you were to use a gun in self defence, say, i can understand that whether you were impaired at the time might be PART of the legal picture, but that notion should apply evenly to everyone, irrespective of the drug. like you said, it is just another tool for targeted enforcement.

After smoking, I’d be too scared to even look at my gun, let alone use it.
