Medical Marijuana card = No guns

[the0ne]

I think this has been brought up before, but I thought I would post a link that clarifies the ATF and their stance. Before it was said that unless the person purchasing the firearm was clearly under the influence or used the medical marijuana card that as identification that they would be allowed to purchase the firearm given that everything else checks out okay. Now this is saying that anyone who is in possession of a MMC must say that they are a unlawful user of marijuana because in the eyes of the federal government anyone using marijuana is unlawful because the federal government still considers marijuana to have to medical value.

There are some lawsuits in the process, but I have heard from some reliable sources that ATF is planning on getting records of those in possession of firearms and a MMC and taking appropriate action, taking away their firearms.

I personally don't smoke, but I am a strong believer in our second admendment. This just looks like another way for the federal government to take away another one of our freedoms in the sake of "public safety". Here is a link for those interested. I would be careful if you have a MMC and go to purchase a firearm.

Hey, just so you guys know I'm not trying to hate on those who have a MMC and firearms, I'm just letting you guys know to be careful if you are planning on purchasing a firearm in the near future. I'm not a LEO, but do contract with them on occasion and have friends in the field. That's why I'm one of the few people that have a CCW permit in California without being a celebrity, or have been a victim of crimes that could come back again.

Obama has gone against everything he said and is actually being harder against medical marijuana laws than Bush was. My contact at the DEA have told me there is talk to audit all those who have MMC and requiring them to give up the firearms or card. More importantly the ATF will not do that until getting the database and pursuing those who have cards and applying to purchase a gun and threatening them with lying on their 4473 application which is a felony. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

You have contacts in the DEA? What kind of contracts do you do for law enforcement?

I would prefer not to state what type of contracting work I do with the DEA, but I do work with both the DEA and California DOJ equivalent to the DEA. In the local branch where I do contract work out of, they share the same office with the FBI pretty much next door. We use their gun range as we don't have one in our building. I have contacts as well as friends within both organizations, if you need to know something just let me know and I'll see what I can find out for you.

If you think the DEA is bad for just their war against drugs, it would sicken you to know in the past they have taken weekend trips to Tijuana to get shit faced and help support the single mothers in the red light district. It's not illegal in there, and they don't do drugs so in their minds it's okay. I haven't heard about any of those trips lately though.

Why would that sicken me? I don't care if they enjoy prostitutes, so long as they aren't diddling kids I don't care who anyone puts their dick in. The war on drugs though, yeah... that's a stomach turner. The law against prostitution is pretty ignorant too IMO.

edit - Are you saying they're fucking with kids? I know they do that in Tijuana. If so that is pretty fucked up.

There is a reason that people go to places like Thailand and Mexico, and it has very little to do with the food there. Use your imagination, I'm sure you can put two and two together.

Yep found this out right before i was going to get mine,most people who have wives just have the card in there name,then have the guns in there wifes name. I believe a gun store can refuse your purchase if they have knowledge of your medical marijuana card.In my opinion,it would be better to buy guns private,face to face,because of no background checks,etc. I think most medical growers get robbed because they don't have guns.
