U.S. Medical Marijuana Card

In the United States, there are currently 16 Legal Medical Marijuana States and District of Columbia that currently have laws that have legalized marijuana for medicinal purposes.

The states are:

Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, DC, Delaware, Hawaii, Maine, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Washington.

You may acquire a Marijuana Card only if you suffer from a medical condition as prescribed by a doctor.

Although many states have approved medical marijuana as an alternative form of medication for many ailments, the United States Government is still in opposition of the state laws regarding voter approved marijuana.

For example, in a well written article, there is reason to believe that those marijuana patients in the states that currently allow marijuana use for medicinal purposes are in jeopardy of losing their Second Amendment Rights.

Second Amendment Rights are The Right To Bear Arms as a U.S. citizen.

According to the article, The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms (ATF) says that a patient gives up his or her constitutional right just by letting the state know that they want to take medical marijuana.

The article also points out that medical marijuana users have diminished rights just by having a marijuana card.

Here’s how the ATF sees it:

If you are a medical marijuana patient, you are in violation of federal code Sect. 922(g) of the federal Gun Control Act, which basically says that anyone “who is an unlawful user of or addicted to any controlled substance” is basically barred from possessing or receiving guns or ammo.

The article is worth reading, which I highly recommend… and most importantly, if you are going to apply for a medical marijuana card, it’s best to know all of your rights and options.

In addition to the marijuana patients possibility losing their Second Amendment rights, there have been a serious assault by California federal prosecutors against marijuana dispensaries throughout the state; the Feds are threatening to shut down dispensaries and sending letters out to landlords warning them about the sales of the drug on their premises.

In the letter, it warns the landlord that they must comply within 45 days in order to avoid the possibility that their property will be seized and they will be sent to prison.
