The Supreme Court will consider whether people who regularly smoke marijuana can legally own guns, the latest firearm case to come before the court since its 2022 decision expanding gun rights
The way the law works currently it’s just a mechanism to remove gun rights from people and to tack on extra bullshit charges to anyone who happens to get caught with a little weed and also owns guns. Sincerely hope they can actually change this law because it is almost entirely used for bullshit.
Isn’t this almost never enforced? You’d have to be caught by federal law enforcement with both on you, which seems incredibly unlikely.
IIRC this is mainly used as a foot in the door to get people on more serious charges, like Al Capone w/ tax evasion.
Not defending it, as #1 the federal government doesn’t have the power to criminalize or regulate marijuana in the first place, and #2 it’s a gross violation of your rights.

the gop hardon for weed+jailtime, to feed into the forprofit system, in order to get kickbacks plus use the prison population as part of the census.
