The Supreme Court says you can be a pothead and still own a gun

Original version ·

Legal logic just took a weird turn as the highest court in the land decided that tokers have rights too.

So, the Supreme Court just dropped a ruling that basically says you can't strip someone of their constitutional rights just because they enjoy a bit of weed. The case centered on a guy who got busted for owning a firearm while being a regular cannabis user. The court decided that banning pot smokers from gun ownership is unconstitutionally vague and steps on Second Amendment toes.

It is wild that we are finally seeing the intersection of the green revolution and gun culture collide in the highest chambers of the land. Apparently, puffing on a joint doesn't automatically mean you lose your right to bear arms in the eyes of the law anymore.

Logic is officially doing backflips in the halls of justice.
