Seems Trump isn't "2A" like you thought. Guns or weed? Trump administration says you can't have both

Under current rules, anyone who has ever used a controlled substance—even if they’ve turned their life around—faces a permanent ban on owning firearms.

From colonial times through the Gun Control Act of 1968, temporary restrictions existed, but redemption was possible. Now, that relief valve has been effectively shut off.

Nope. Read the post right above yours. The question does not read "ever used."

Question 21.f. asks: "Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?".

Here is where I am going to stomp on your throat and bury you 6 feet under.

If you were prohibited from owning firearms due to a court-ordered involuntary commitment for alcohol dependency, you may be able to have your federal gun rights restored.

To have your rights restored:
  • You must apply through a federally certified, state-based "relief from disability" (RFD) program.
  • The process typically involves a court hearing where you must demonstrate your recovery and that you are not a danger to yourself or others.
  • After the state grants you relief, they must update the federal National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) database to remove your prohibition.

Not anymore asshole! Trump is stopping that.
 
nope
watch the video

Your video is bullshit. It would first have to be proven that someone has a criminal history involving drugs. Most people who smoked pot at some point in their lives have no "criminal history" due to their usage.

Nice try, but you completely misinterpreted the law.

Why did DOJ publish a relief program July 18th for a process for restoring privileges?

 
Not my problem. I don 't smoke that shit, I'm keeping my guns, and I'm keeping my President.
.

Ditto. Don't use weed or alcohol. I can shoot straighter than any left cultist dopehead alive.

that is for FELONS, not substance abusers :omg:

Under federal law—specifically 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)—certain people are prohibited from possessing firearms. This includes felons, people with domestic violence convictions, those subject to restraining orders, and others. For years, there was no real pathway for individuals to request a review of their status and apply for relief, particularly after Congress stopped the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) from processing such requests in 1992.

But things have changed. Recent Supreme Court decisions—including District of Columbia v. Heller, NY State Rifle & Pistol Ass’n v. Bruen, and United States v. Rahimi—have reaffirmed the constitutional right to bear arms and made it clear that any restrictions on this right must align with historical traditions and standards.

To comply with this evolving legal landscape, the DOJ has now proposed a rule to bring back the relief-from-disabilities process under § 925(c). This rule sets out who can apply, what standards will be used to judge their application, and what factors will weigh for or against them.
 
that is for FELONS
Guilty of drug crimes?

It's a simple process when buying a gun.......you agree that you are not an addict or user.....that's it.

Get weed card and you personally, on your own salvoed your 2A rights.

And your bullshit about going to another state? Sounds like something you'd try....being as it's a federal data base........... :badgrin:

Tell me how is anyone going to determine anything about your past drug use?
 
It looks like it is a well supported program. Also looks at a failed attempt to slime Trump from a dual poster here.

Here is where I am going to stomp on your throat and bury you 6 feet under.

What People Are Saying​

Amy Bellantoni, a gun rights attorney, said in an email statement to Newsweek on Friday, "For decades, the federal Certificate of Relief program once available to individuals who forfeited the loss of their rights to possess firearms and ammunition as a result of a conviction of a felony or qualifying misdemeanor under federal law remained unfunded and unavailable. Removing that authority from the ATF and reinstating a path toward restoration of rights through the Attorney General's Office is warranted, commendable, and long overdue."

Second Amendment Foundation Executive Director Adam Kraut told Newsweek in an email statement: "Having litigated as-applied challenges for a number of disenfranchised individuals, it's good to see that this proposed rule provides a pathway to restore their rights. For years, the only mechanisms available for relief from a federal firearms disability were the all but impossible pardon, seemingly illusory expungement that did not satisfy federal requirements, or an expensive and uncertain route of litigation. The reestablishment of a federal firearms relief determination program will enable millions of Americans to regain their ability to exercise their Second Amendment rights."

President of the Second Amendment Law Center, Chuck Michel, told Newsweek in an email statement Friday: "Refunding a process for restoring Second Amendment rights for certain qualifying people is long overdue and a welcome recognition that many nonviolent individuals have for years been deprived of their fundamental rights without constitutional justification. Nationally, thousands of people could take advantage of this process and regain their right to use a firearm for sport or to defend their families."

David Pucino, legal director and deputy chief counsel at Giffords Law Center to Prevent Gun Violence told Newsweek in an email Friday night: "It is important for there to be a mechanism for individuals who were once legally restricted from owning firearms to potentially have those rights restored if they can demonstrate that they truly pose no threat to public safety. These proposed rules appear to leave room for considerable discretion that, if handled improperly, could allow dangerous people to obtain guns. Any restoration process must be applied objectively based on the facts of individual cases with the understanding that a single mistake puts innocent lives at risk.That should be unacceptable to all of us, regardless of political party."

Attorney General Pam Bondi said in the Friday press release: "For too long, countless Americans with criminal histories have been permanently disenfranchised from exercising the right to keep and bear arms—a right every bit as constitutionally enshrined as the right to vote, the right to free speech, and the right to free exercise of religion—irrespective of whether they actually pose a threat. No longer."

U.S. Pardon Attorney Edward R. Martin Jr. said in the Friday press release: "General Bondi's support of the rebooted 925(c) program is consistent with President Donald J. Trump's promise to the American people to support the beautiful Second Amendment. My team and I are developing a 925(c) program landing page with a sophisticated, user-friendly platform for Americans petitioning for the return of their gun rights, which will make the process easier for them."

I shoot clovers at 100 yards
you can not rack the slide with your ancient frail hands

You're a silly person. I handload my own ammunition for 10 different calibers, have been shooting since 1962, and nothing I own can print cloverleaf groups at 100 yards.

Quit trolling. Most of the guys and girls on here know the difference.

Prove it. Every round I shoot gets its velocity measured with a Caldwell Ballistic Precision chronograph, and the targets are photographed and entered into my reloading data. And I shoot thousands of rounds per year.

Either put you money where your mouth is, or continue making a fool out of yourself.
