We started it,...Oregon, land of Weed. Although "Weed" is a town at the top of the mountain crossing the boarder, traveling south into California.

Me too!

@SeaGreenEyez . Cannabis is finally getting the respect it needs as a good herbal cure for many things. The problem now is that as the prohibition laws are repealed the price for weed has skyrocketed. There more reason to grow your own than price, the growers might use poisons for controlling insects or they might try to enhance it with a more dangerous drug like fentanyl.

@OldGoat43 I thought one of the advantages of legalizing weed was the control of how it is grown. Oklahoma growers have all kinds of inspections and are not allowed to use any pesticides.

@Lorajay . That's a good measure of how safe weed should be grown. It's organic without having to label it organic.

The marijuana law that prohibits gun ownership if a user of marijuana is a Federal Law, thus the Florida conundrum. States cannot legally override the Federal firearm laws, regardless of their drug policy. Anyone in the country using marijuana, legally or not, and owning a firearm is breaking Federal Law. On the application for buying a firearm, the question is asked and if you lie and say you are not using drugs, they can bust you on that as well. Is it enforced? I would guess not unless it ties in with other violations, but it is there until the US Congress passes a bill decriminalizing pot. And Republicans have shown no interest in doing that to this point.

@Barnie2years I took a little look at the law in my state and what I found was that there are no state restrictions on medical marijuana users owning guns here. As far as I know, the feds do not recognize my right to use it anyway.

@MyTVC15 Again, Federal Law trumps State law when it comes to firearms. To buy a gun, you fill out a Federal Form (and in Pennsylvania a State Form) with a bunch of questions about arrests, mental issues and drugs. The ATF regulates all gun sales. States don't need to have their own restrictions in place, because the Fed has it covered. Same reason banks under FDIC regulations can't legally accept money from drug transactions even when the states have legalized marijuana. They can find work arounds or risk breaking the Federal Law, but the US Congress would have to change the laws in place for it to be actually legal.

@SeaGreenEyez I'm not worried. I don't have a gun and I don't want a gun. Not a problem here.
