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
Everyone here is assuming they’re trying to outlaw this. It is already outlawed. They’re looking to overturn it.
WHO is trying to overturn it? Did YOU read the article?
Remember that the supreme court often picks up a case after a back and forth, and that the previous ‘last stop’ of the case helps determine what’s going on. The previous court had voided the law, and now dump and co. are trying to revive the case. So if the supreme court was fine with ‘legalizing it’ they could have done so by dint of letting the lower court’s ruling lie. Maybe, just maybe, the supreme court is doing what it is supposed to do when lower courts disagree with each other on rulings, but let’s be honest, do you think this supreme court cares about anything but helping the conservative pushes? If it gets more laws that can be used against non-wasps, they’ll slap down some ai generated bullshit faster than thomas can get in an rv.
The assessment should consider ALL mind altering substances the gun owner consumes. Beer, weed, medications. Self-reporting isn’t great, but better than nothing.

I’m hoping it’s mostly europeans, I feel like most americans with any exposure to gun culture should already know about this being illegal.
A surprising amount of people don’t understand that if they live in a state where weed is legal that doesn’t mean Federal laws on it don’t apply.
