kelpdiver 2 #30 September 29, 2011 QuoteQuote>When the shit hits the fan, you poor defenseless souls will be... >-hiding >-begging for protection >-falling like flies >-eating each other Exactly. Whereas the gun owners will be sitting pretty, protectin their ranches and eatin their guns. It will be like Mad Max but with the national anthem playing in the background. If they have ranches, they'll be eating beef and not guns. Nice attempt, otherwise. Golden Gate Park has a small herd of buffalo. I'll claim that first when I take over the Richmond district of San Francisco. Then I can trade it for fish from the warlord of the Sunset District.

kelpdiver 2 #31 September 29, 2011 Quote So which holds trump? State medical mj law (never heard of so many people under 50 with 'glaucoma' in my life), or GCA 68? nah, these days I think insomnia is the top choice. Glaucoma actually has medical evidence that the doctor would need to record. But 'has trouble sleeping?' Piece of cake, and easy money for the doctors ($35-100, I understand). Funny bit is that last guy I heard on the bus talking about his 'insomnia' went on to say that pot kept him awake. This clash between the states and the feds is slowly building. I'm not sure what it will take to settle it once and for all. Obviously if the GOP wins next year, the party of no fun will quickly try to push back the changes of the past 15 years, but it may be hard. Pot is all but legal in California now, though that notion about the Feds comparing pot card lists versus gun lists (CA does keep records on handgun sales) is an interesting one. I wonder how big the union is. The alliance of pot smokers and fiscal conservatives is probably the best shot to legally end the war, as lots of people want a new source of revenue that they don't have to pay for, never mind the considerable savings in DEA, local police, and prison systems.

Belgian_Draft 0 #40 September 29, 2011 QuoteMy problem with this is that I see recreational pot smokers as no different than recreational liquor drinkers. They aren't dangerous, they aren't threatening anyone, they aren't robbing banks or mugging little old ladies. They just smoke to feel good, just like drinkers. I would agree except that possession of mj is mostly illegal under federal law. When and if it is ever legal then your argument has a valid point. Like any other law, it doesn't matter if you or I agree with it, it is still the law.HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit.

Marinus 0 #45 October 2, 2011 This is only my second post here, so I decided to keep it with a relatively non-explosive subject. A topic about fire arm laws and drugs seems to be the safest choice. This topic is specifically about Cannabis, but I think it's in general a bad idea to combine firearms and drugs. This includes the drug alcohol, btw. I think it all depends on the time between doing the drug and handling firearms. As long as someone is keeping both activities strictly separated, I don't see why they shouldn't be allowed to posses guns. Just like someone can be a responsible drinker, someone can be a responsible pot-smoker too. Well, smoking pot is illegal of course, and breaking the law is in itself irresponsible, but that doesn't make a pot-smoking gun owner automatically a danger to society. I'm not sure how it works with crime and gun ownership in the US of A, but it seems a bit out there to take away someone's firearms, without a good reason.
