It is still a federal crime. The part that gets me and all these people using pot and lying on applications to buy another gun. I don’t think we should have any restrictions generally speaking on gun purchase of possession, putting them in the hands of drug users, the same as alcohol it’s a bad idea. I know I’m older than a lot of folks, but I never use drugs, and I do not appreciate their use. So I have no sympathy for the people who are arrested, tried, convicted, north in jail for drug possession, drug sales. Actions have consequences.
And Soviet dissidents knew their actions could have consequences; did that make the laws under which they were imprisoned wise or just?
