Well in our current times, it is easier to legally buy weed than it is to parctice our constitutional right. You don't need a CCW permit (carry concealed weed)to have it in your pocket. So with that said I can't seem to understand why the leading causes of violence (i.e. alcohol and drugs) are not taken more seriously. I would love to know what the % of violent crimes in Ca are related to alcohol and drugs. I would have to guess that it would be up to almost 95%. I am currently involved in a attemped murder case where a drunk man drove his suburban into a friend of mine and then aimed for me. Also as this driver drove off, he pushed a female passenger out of the SUV at 40 MPH. When the cops caught up to him, he tried to run them down also. This case has been dragging on for over 3 years. I Don't get it. I guess most of the Kalifornia elected officials love their booze and weed.

Guns are EVIL.
Alcohol & Drugs are problems with poor misunderstood people with tragic childhoods.

There is a connection between public policy regarding firearms and policy regarding drugs. Underlying past and current policy in both areas is the notion that legal prohibition is effective.
Prohibition doesn't work. Remember "Prohibition." Or try to remember the little bit of history you may have read.
Reasonable restrictions on firearms and on recreational drugs can both limit harm to citizens at large and can also satisfy the political demands of a large portion of the public.Last edited by Mike d'Ocla; 10-21-2009, 5:31 PM.Comment

who's this guy?
the guy across the street from me is a meth addict, and has been squatting in his dead parents' home for 5 years. the police cant move him, even when he goes outside with no pants on, or screams at people that arent there, in the middle of the road. his brother, the legal owner of the house, is unable to sell, and is forced to pay the property tax on the home every year, and likely a mortgage.
i cant have the magazines that heckler and koch designed to be put in my COMPACT handgun. because they take 2 too many cartridges.
please reiterate your point. i didnt get it the first time.Comment

I seem to recall an amendment to the US Constitution, the 2nd I believe, that guarantees my right to keep and bear arms without any nod whatsoever from the government, be it state or federal.
Any restriction placed on that right by the government is therefore by definition unreasonable.
I don't recall any such amendments as far as 'recreational drugs' go.
Perhaps they were just too stoned to remember to put one in dude.

Black Markets
When buying something illegal (Pot), the dealer isn't worried about things like laws, hell, the fact that something is illegal cuts competition and allows him to make more money.
As long as you got the money, he's got the products.
Now the only reason you have problems with buying legal guns is because you are obeying the laws.
If you were buying illegal guns like machineguns, rocket launchers, you wouldn't have to worry about things like background checks, fingerprints etc.
From what some Oakland cops told me the going rate for a full auto AK or MAC 10 is about 1K btw.

Eh to me pot isn't any good. I am deadly allergic to the stuff. I really hate when we go out for a walk and end up having to fight to keep my airway open. As a matter of fact happened tonight at the farmers market. So my night totally was ruined. Not to mention our lives got turned upside down due to the crazy neighbor that is also a meth head. Finally managed to get him evicted but he still freaking hangs around and still causes problems.
I have to agree that they should worry more about the things such as drug and alcohol than messing with our 2A rights."I declare to you that women must not depend upon the protection of man, but must be taught to protect herself, and there I take my stand." Susan B. AnthonyComment
