Amazon 7 #30 April 2, 2010 QuoteNews:Pot grower barred from buying guns A medical-marijuana activist... has been barred from buying guns because he's a pot patient, according to an e-mail sent Tuesday by authorities. The e-mail from the King County Sheriff's Office to Steve Sarich said paperwork authorizing him to use and grow marijuana for medical reasons was enough to deny him the possession of weapons. Sarich, 59, said he tried to buy a shotgun and a pistol... He said he has no criminal record but failed the background check because federal laws prohibit "unlawful users" of controlled substances from buying or receiving guns. Marijuana is illegal under federal law...Source: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2011483199_potactivist31.html I would just be happy that anyone who gets drunk while hunting would be a trip to the county jail. If you want to go hunting.. LEAVE the fucking BOOZE and BEER at home. Of course that would exclude about 80% of fucking hunters who are just trying to get away from their families and party in the woods for a week. If they want to do that.. LEAVE the fucking guns at home and go camping. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riggerrob 643 #31 April 2, 2010 Agreed.. Far too many Americans abuse drugs and alcohol and guns. I suspect that the vast majority of accidental discharges are drug or alcohol related. Ergo, I believe that medical marijuana users should be allowed to own guns, BUT is they are ever caught manipulating guns while stoned, they should spend a few weeks in jail, the same as if they were caught driving stoned or driving drunk. In case I sound like a hypocrite, the only way I could solve my own bad habit of driving home from the pub drunk was to quit drinking alcohol. I have been sober for 14 years. The last time I touched marijuana was a couple of years ago, when I was struggling to recover from injuries suffered in a plane crash. The night my buddy offered me a toke was my first complete night of sleep in two months. Medical marijuana works, but should only be used briefly and only under after exhausting all other pain-killers. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SivaGanesha 2 #33 April 2, 2010 QuoteQuoteI think it should be treated the same as alcohol. You should be able to own a gun if you use the drug (alcohol or weed) legally but if you are under the influence and use the gun then your ass belongs to the judge. If you are under the influence and hurt somebody with that gun, then the judge can transfer possession of your ass to a guy named Bubba who you will share a cell with for the next 5-15 years. +1 -10 People who are drunk have no business driving or skydiving but they still have every right to defend themselves in a potentially deadly confrontation. The fact that A is sober and B is drunk in a confrontation between A and B does not necessarily mean that A is right and B is wrong."It's hard to have fun at 4-way unless your whole team gets down to the ground safely to do it again!"--Northern California Skydiving League re USPA Safety Day, March 8, 2014 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Southern_Man 0 #35 April 2, 2010 Part of the problem w/ the medical marijuana paradism where it is being permitted by the state but still illegal under federal law. Asinine stuff like this is just another reason for me to be in favor of full legalization."What if there were no hypothetical questions?" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both hunters and skydivers can drink and participate in their activities in the same weekend, but do so responsibly by separating the activities in time. Hunt or jump during the day, drink at night. Nothing wrong with that. You're proposal goes beyond that. You seem to want to lock them up just because they want to have a cold beer at the end of the day, while a gun is nearby. Beware of what you ask for... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cool BUT you and I BOTH know it goes far beyond that when it gets to the DUMB ASS stage of "Here hold my beer, Watch this" stage.

Amazon 7 #39 April 2, 2010 QuoteSounds like you need to choose your friends better, or groups you hunt with. I am VERY choosy.. trouble is most of the morons want to stay in similar camp sites. When I start hearing guns goping off at night while some dickweeds are partying... just down the road.. I get the hell out of the area. This is one of the reasons I really do like hunting in wilderness areas, you have to pack in by foot or on horseback, THAT cuts down on the number of SLOB HUNTERS drastically.
