Medical marijuana cardholders are banned from buying guns

[Dave328]

LOL @ stoners!!

Honestly, I don't know enough about the different types of "medical marijuana" available to know what's available .....Would this ruling also cover what would be prescribed here for medical purposes? At the end of the day, it's still MJ, right?

This isn't Colorado. When someone in Louisiana has been prescribed Medicinal Marijuana, it's not a bag of weed. You don't get a card to go shop for your favorite strain of drugs like they do in all the commie states. In Louisiana, you are prescribed "medicinal marijuana" in other forms, such as pills or liquids.

The folks talking pill form or liquids, in Louisiana, are actually taking it because they need it. The folks in Commiefornia and Colorado are rolling their own in the basement and getting high for fun.

Give it a few years. I'm not advocating it and frankly in my line of work dealing with workers comp and drug-free policies its gonna be a pain in the backside, but I am at my core a Libritarian and that means if you want to get stoned or drunk on your own time and it doesn't effect me then I do believe that is your right. But it will be legal again no doubt in my mind.

Don't hold your breath.

Sure they can tax it and make loads of money, but we'll never see the money go to anything, so I don't care. I'm close to many medical professionals and you won't get their approval of smoking some grass.

Ahh, okay....Yeah, that's a bit different than what I ASSumed.

Thanks for the info.

Do you feel that THC use creates a more dangerous situation than psychotropic prescription medications or other legal mood-altering substances?

Yeah I know most people including my wife see pot and other more natural forms of drugs through the lense of the last 60+ years of "drugs are bad" propoganda, but have no problem alcohol as long as its enjoyed responsibly. Personally I doubt I would dabble in the doobies at this point in my life even if it were legal for all to recreationally indulge, but I still believe it should be everyone's right to decide how they feel about it. Again it would likely make my life more complicated, at least until the insurance companies and our company sorts out how to handle testing for a substance that stays in you system for months but only causes euphoria for a limited time.

No, not at all!

Do you really care what someone else is doing in their own basement if it doesn't involve or endanger you in any way? Sounds like a few people I know who don't know how to mind their own ****ing business.

BTW, their are plenty of other, legal drugs, that are being massively prescribed to all sorts of people that are far worse for the individual and for others that may be around them when they lose their ****.
I'd trust the average pot head with a firearm any day before I'd trust someone taking other meds with I'll side effects or an alcoholic.

My problem is with the dealers and people who drive under the influence. Outside of that I could care less.

I guarantee a lot of you guys have friends, COworkers, and/or relatives that you respect and think highly of that in the privacy of their own homes and on their own time smoke/consume pot. If you say otherwise or just don't believe that statement you are either just downright gullible or don't have many friends/relatives.

I think we all agree, if you harm/truly endanger someone or their property, there should be punishments including the loss of Rights (for a period of time).

 

[MrNiceGuy]

Honestly though people do way more ****ed up **** on alcohol than pot. The biggest hazard of smoking pot is getting caught doing it. If it was legal it would be 100 times safer than drinking


Before you guys get crazy ideas about this post just know im a bartender and i do not smoke pot.. i deal with drunks on a regualr basis though and they can be insane

No. Never said I did. I just said that it's illegal and I have no intention of making any effort to have it legalized. It is your right as a human to do as you please, but there are consequences for everything.

Maybe, but you can't compare alcohol to marijuana, just as you can't compare opiates to marijuana. If you truly have a medicinal reason for marijuana, then you can get a prescription (possibly, but that's another discussion). Point being, I could walk through a bar room, past everyone drinking, and I won't get drunk.

I think your problem is likely with someone higher up the food chain than the average toker slinging a little grass to fund their habit. I never bought from someone I felt uncomfortable around, and most if not all of them wouldn't sell to high school kids. I know there is a whole criminal underbelly to the blackmarket, but if it were legal the drug cartels would start to shrink.

You could walk past people smoking and not get high also. Its illegal to smoke inside and i never have a issue walking past cig smokers outside

Then why make it a point to try and demonize the ones who choose to make that choice? Doesn't come off as someone who doesn't care or knows how to mind their own business.

I second that. I tended bar through college and smoked on occasion went to a lot of parties and delt with many situations but I have never had someone stoned on weed take a swing at me. I wish I could say the same about alcohol.
