I think we'd all agree on that, it would be very similar to driving intoxicated. It's just stupid that you could get caught smoking pot once, go to jail, and 20 years later be denied a firearm because of it, even though there's absolutely zero permanent trace of marijuana.

>Evidence from laboratory studies, anecdotal reports, and small clinical studies from a number of years ago suggests that cannabidiol, a non-psychoactive compound of cannabis, could potentially be helpful in controlling seizures.

>Individual reports of children with refractory (or intractable) epilepsy who have tried cannabis, usually with high ratios of cannabidiol to THC, have reported marked improvements in seizure frequency, including a report describing the results of Charlotte, a girl with Dravet syndrome.

And in a trial with a 99% cannabidiol treatment called Epidiolex:

Seizures decreased by an average of 54% in 137 people who completed 12 weeks on Epidiolex.

Patients who had DS responded more positively with a 63% decrease in seizures over 3 months. This improvement in seizures lasted through 24 weeks on the Epidiolex, more often for people with DS than without DS.

In 27 patients with atonic seizures (which are commonly seen in people with LGS as well as other types of epilepsy), the atonic seizures decreased by 66.7% on average.

The responder rate (the number of people whose seizures decreased by at least 50%) was also slightly better in patients with DS (about 55% at 3 months) as compared to patients without DS (50%).

You're a fucking idiot if you're still in denial about this. It has helped many people, especially those who are younger who are being treated with high doses of prescription drugs that they shouldn't be putting in their bodies at the age of 6. There's testing happening right now for treatment like this because it has a lot of potential for people who aren't responding to conventional treatments. Just because you don't agree with it doesn't mean it's not working.

People with severe epilepsy sometimes don't respond to conventional, synthetic, prescription drugs. Or if they do, the side effects are too extreme to consider it a viable way of treating them. That's the niche that THC oil can fill. It helps people. It has been proven to help people. Did a weed dealer fuck your wife or something?
>>
>>28532766

Not the guy you replied to, but that's actually pretty shitty as a cure.

If it has an effect, it's probably related to being more mellowed out.

>>28532799
It's not intended as a "cure". It's just meant to decrease the intensity of the seizures and spasms that these people have because it's common for people not to respond to synthetic drugs and other conventional treatments. My oldest sister suffers from epileptic seizures, and she's had multiple surgeries done to try and negate her symptoms because her prescription stopped blocking her seizures. The most recent one (about a year ago) seems to be working so far, but it was an expensive surgery and we don't know yet if it will work or not. That can be really expensive for families, and can be really risky because there are many new (and untested) approaches, and surgery is always risky, especially on children. I think this THC oil is just another option families will have for alleviating symptoms, but I really think it's one that we should give them.

and
>Pot is the best thing on the planet! It will instantly cure cancer, DUDE WEED

It need to be legalized, it has health benefits and is less harmful than even alcohol, although it's still not perfect, it can still be harmful, just to a lesser degree.

Look at how successful it was for Colorado, they legalized it and taxed it and it payed off in dividends for the taxpayers.
It's not a miracle substance, but it's not bad either. The culture surrounding it it cringey, but that can be looked past.
It's not the 1930s anymore, it won't melt your face off, but it won't cure anything, it can only help treat certain medical problems.
I see it like alcohol, its something that should be done in a controlled area, just like getting drunk.

Arrest people for driving while under the influence, tax it, and allow recreational use.
We waste fucking millions a year fighting it. We are basically burning money to make people who fell for the drug war propaganda feel better about it.

It's worth a shot. A lot of younger kids who have Dravat's or are suffering from highly frequent seizures aren't really living anymore, they just spasm non stop and cry because they're exhausted. At least with THC oil parents can try to give their child a chance to develop. It's worked before, and I'm sure if there were long term effects of their kid being lethargic, they would probably take that over their kid being in pain and spasming nonstop.

Lawmakers don't make laws based on logic or reason, only feels. This goes back to the 20's and before.

I wanted to buy a Ruger 10/22 to plink off my back porch, but because I have a medical marijuana card for my cancer I'm not allowed to buy or handle a firearm.

I was tried of being miserable on a concoction of opiates and pain/nausea meds, so my doctor had me try out low-THC high-CBD oil supplements, and now I can live a somewhat normal life again. Before this, I never touched pot, never even smoked or drank because I didn't want to ruin my body, but I'm happy my doctor suggested this.

I don't think it's a miracle drug, it's not curing my cancer, but it is allowing me to live a normal life.

Much like prohibition of the 20's and 30's, the laws were based on people's fee-fees and not logic. In both cases, the negative impact on American society has been greater than the impact caused by drunkards and stoners.

Either get the rest of the potheads to actually do something constructive instead of trying to draw parallels to unrelated topics or shut up and continue to buy relatively cheap and available weed illegally. Nobody cares that alcohol isn't your preferred method of escapism, fact of the matter is alcohol is legal and pot was made illegal, your fight was decided yeas ago and an effective push to legalize weed on a federal scale hasn't happened. All the "waaaah but their vice is legal! Punish them or reward me!" bullshit that gets spouted about alcohol isnt winning you any support, life isnt fair you aren't special alcohol is legal weed isn't grow up and campaign for the lagalizatuon of your vice based on actual reasons. All the stoners arguing for medical benefits loses its relevance when it is blatantly obvious they just want to get high try being a grown up and just say "I want to get high, it doesnt hurt anybody it shouldnt be illegal in the privacy of my own home."

I agree, using marijuana shouldn't be an issue with ownership at all.

I don't smoke, drink, do anything of that nature really. I think most pro-gun individuals agree that it should boil down to this:

>don't operate firearms when under the influence of either

But if you enjoy it when you're not handling weapons, that's fine. Pretty simple. Pic unrelated.

This is a problem with the US criminal justice system, not a point in favor of drug use. The US criminal justice system is amusingly inefficient. I'm sure building more prisons will help, though. pfft

So your argument hinges on the idea that legalizing pot will cut off cash to the cartels. You all act like it won't end up being sold from Mexico to the states in a similar fashion to how cigarettes are traded illegally interstate wise. I'm sure all of you little druggies much rather purchase cheaper pot from a questionable source rather than buy it for a much higher price legally.

At the end of the day, their solution will just create more government oversight and bureaucracy as various other departments move in to verify origin and legal purchase on the part of retailers and all levels of possession between individuals will be subject to tax and interstate commerce regulation.

Net result: same number of people going to jail.

I'm talking about people who have never had hands on experience with the thing in question.

If you have never bothered to research anything about firearms or their owners, or you have never tried to fire one to clear up any confusion, you have no room to be criticizing the progun side.
Same goes for pot, if you have never bothered to research the effects of it from credible sources, or you have never actually used it, to know yourself, you will not be as qualified to speak on the subject either way.

What if someone tried to say that an AR will blow a deer apart leaving only a crater and four legs, you would call them a retard for not doing a small amount of research required to not look like a misinformed faggot.

Same goes for pot, ronnie raygun made everyone think that it was the predecessor to krokodil.
If you bother to learn the facts about that which you oppose, you might just see it a different way and you might not look like such a rumor spewing ignoramus.

So yeah, unless the firearm is on your person while you're committing a felony, it's totally legal to own if you use marijuana, which is only a misdemeanor.
>>
>>28532563
>If you break a law then you're a criminal.
>If you're a criminal you don't get to have a gun.
Why not? No other rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights, or even further Amendments, are violated merely because of a felony conviction.

>because they could use a gun to hurt someone!
White-collar criminals convicted of felonies aren't much more likely to use a firearm than any other person. Why should they lose such a right?

>but some criminals are more likely because recidivism!
If we are concerned that a person is still a danger to society, we need to reconfigure our punitive system to keep those people separated from society either in jail or other supervision. Furthermore, merely because somebody is more likely to commit a crime doesn't mean that their rights should be tampered with. Blacks, for example, are more likely to commit crimes than non-blacks, but we don't AND SHOULD'T restrict somebody's rights because they belong to a demographic of our choosing. Men commit the vast number of violent crimes, but we don't limit guns to men simply because they are men.

etc.

What really sucks for me because I'm level headed and can hold my liquor is that unless on my own property if I have consumed 1 drop of liquor in my state and have my gun in my possession its a class A misdemeanor for $10,000 and 9 months in jail. Which forces me with the options to either illegally carry, keep it in the glove box, or leave it at home.

It was obviously sarcasm, jesus dude.

>>28532757
The exact wording is currently "Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?"

It sounds like they would reject you for an addiction to a completely legal substance, so they could keep the question exactly the same and lawful marijuana smokers would just mark "no."
>>
>>28533725
Yeah that sucks.

In WA you can't have a gun IN the bar area, but you can drink in a restaurant just fine.

I don't see why it shouldn't be that way, our society HAS a strong taboo against drunken carry, most people do not even drink while carrying but those who do do not get drunk.

Only exception being while backpacking I've been pretty drunk and armed.

Nobody was around and I never unholstered so whatever, I don't consider it any more dangerous than backpacking drunk without a gun.
>>
>>28533841
Oh i mean I get shit-faced but I at no time am worried in any environment about the level of my drunkenness. I'm always very polite & nice and never make enemies. I realize a huge percentage of people go the other way and get all feisty and it would be a bad idea for them to be armed because they might go overt with their actions however all mine would be purely out of reactionary defense. I'd rather do the time, get the fine, pay the lawyer, then be in a wood box.

Probably because medical cards are stupid easy to get and if you have one, you have the ability to buy weed for other people.
Why trust a dealer with a few strains when you can just waltz into a head shop, flash your med card and rec letter, and buy any number of strains, along with things like edibles that make consumption more pleasant for you and everyone around you (no smoke, little to no smell, no accessories needed, no ashes, etc) or have a friend that can do it for you?
