It's fucked up though that merely possessing weed+firearm is makes you "prohibited possessor" with 10 years in jail when a NAND of the two is legal. Such a person may be considered a violator of weapons and drug laws, even though all they did was own a legal firearm and simple possession of weed.
- DontchaKnowit 4y agoFucked up yes, but anyone fucking with drugs that has half a brain knows this, so the ones getting convicted are probably not using them for target practice
- notch656a 4y agoYoutube star FPSRussia was just using them for target practice. He ultimately got convicted of possession of hash oil (with intent, seemingly solely because he shared it with his girlfriend). While he plead down to the possesion w/ intent it's my understanding the original charges included prohibited possessor. I don't think he'll get the pardon either since he got a distribution charge for toking with the GF.
- DontchaKnowit 4y agoYeah there are definitely scenarios where its some real bullshit, I agree. And it's fucked up that a persons decision to smoke weed essentially removes their second amendment rights. But its still a decision that you can make, you know. It's not like you HAVE to have a gun. (idk the specifics of the FPSrussia case so won't comment on that)
- dsfyu404ed 4y agoPaying a guy to sit in the passenger seat packing heat while you handle the dope and the money or paying another guy to store your product at his house and all the other things you need to do to not catch a "gun stacking" multiplier on your petty dealing charge is a luxury that only successful and established dealers can afford.
- DontchaKnowit 4y agoYou just said it though - only successful and established DEALERs can afford. The problem you are describing is a problem of a drug dealer. A drug dealer with a gun is a criminal that ought to catch a charge. That's exactly my point.
