I don't think anyone who uses psychotropic drugs should be allowed anywhere near firearms.

Think Ritalin and recent school shootings.

I love these pot threads, they produce the strangest of comments.

We are still struggling with the words “Shall not be infringed”.

“Think Ritalin and recent school shootings.”

Can you cite more than one school shooting that was caused by the shooter taking Ritalin?

Which part of “shall not be infringed” are you having the most trouble with?

BIG difference between pot and ritalin. Molon labe, leftist. I dare you to come for my guns.

Colorado can do (and did) as they wish. 10th Amendment to the max!

However, the hard and fast rule applies: Play stupid games - win stupid prizes.

And voters there made stupid decisions that they have to live with.

Lots of people drink(among other things) and have carry permits.

There shouldn’t even be a such thing as a “carry permit”. If you can legally own the dammed gun, you should be able to carry it in any way you please, where you are permitted to do so. What you do in the way drugs or alcohol is irrelevant.

If you’re impaired and kill someone, you’ll still go to prison, if deadly force wasn’t warranted. This is just another case of layers of laws on top of laws. It’s just stupid.

When I think Ritalin I think legally prescribed FDA approved. Are we talking a lifetime ban on gun ownership for people taking legally prescribed psychotropics or just while they are taking the Rx? I wonder because sometimes people get flakier after they stop using Rx psychotropics than while they are on them.

Screw anybody who doesn’t like that.

I thought it only disqualified you if you were “addicted” to marijuana, not simply a user.

I guess I was wrong. Here is the question of the ATF purchase form:

e. Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?

My copy of the Constitution does not seem to mention any class of people who can be debarred the use of arms. "Shall not be infringed" means just what it says. Anyone who can not be trusted to be armed should not be running around loose, anyway.
