COURT SAYS NO SECOND AMENDMENT PROTECTION FOR STONERS

By Bob Walsh

The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals ruled today that persons with medical marijuana cards can lose their rights to possess firearms. The official position of the federal government, as expressed by the ATF gun gestapo, is that persons who have medical marijuana cards are in fact habitual drug users and restricted from the legal ownership or possession of firearms.

I feel compelled to point out that a microscopic number of people with such cards in fact do NOT consume pot but use the cards to semi-legally possess marijuana for transportation to people who do consume it. These cards do, again in theory, permit drivers to possess and deliver the stuff without worrying about being arrested and their cars seized.

EDITOR’S NOTE: I feel compelled to say that a macroscopic number of people shouldn’t have the cards in the first place since they conned doctors into writing pot prescriptions for phony ailments and the doctors were eager to be conned as medical marijuana has become a pot of gold for them.

semi-legally? Is that like being slightly pregnant?

It is my understanding that one of the most common "ailments" for which marijuana is prescribed is anxiety over the prospect of not being able to smoke marijuana.
