@fczwartek Yea I guess your right because it's public property. On your own property though, the government shouldn't have a say. You were talking about public property to begin with though, so I was wrong.
I do think you are to quick to equate alcohol and cannabis, all the studies on driving show that cannabis is less of a problem then being old or tired.
I bet the stats of people being more dangerous with guns while on cannabis don't back up your concerns either but that data doesnt exist yet

So drunk driving should be "legal" up to the point where someone gets hurt or killed ... or (god forbid!) someone's property gets damaged?
.
So some drunk drivers "liberty to make bad choices" is more important than my right not to be crushed to death by his out of control car? Is his "liberty" more important than the lives of my wife and family (or your family for that matter) F.U.C.K NO!

Yeah, I think being drunk or high while in possession of a firearm is actually a great definition of the word "stupid."
.
I don't care much about people making stupid and dangerous decisions in the privacy of their own homes .. but the public at large has a reasonable right to expect that activities that are known to be extremely stupid, dangerous, potentially lethal (like mixing guns and drugs) can and will be restricted with the force (and legitimacy) of law.

@fczwartek After all if these people can vote to decide who runs the country, carry a gun or drive a car then they should be able to figure out in what mental states they should do these things.
If they commit a crime then punish them, pre-crime legislation is nonsense IMO.
-
@fczwartek The issue isn't being high or drunk, its being stupid that causes guns to become a problem. There isn't an effective way of legislating people into safety.
It is illegitimate to punish people for crimes they haven't commit.
You must not have much experience with cannabis if you think that cannabis smokers carrying guns is an issue.
I think ultimately we need to get out of this mentality of passing laws to prevent people from having the choice to make a stupid decision.
-
I'm all for the legalization and decriminalization of pot.
.
Issues caused by 2nd hand marijuana smoke probably fall somewhere between minimal and negligible. It's a flimsy argument as you rightly point out.
.
However, I certainly don't think it's appropriate for people to carry guns in public while they are high or drunk .. or in the process of getting high or drunk. I'd have no issue with a town or city restricting people who are high or drunk from carrying firearms.

@eric710221 They aren't local laws, the ban on certain substances is federal.
If you smoke weed you are a threat to the government and big business. You are also more likely to be liberal because you are using your brain and do not beleive government lies. The war on drugs is used to disenfranchise people and keep them from getting a job or to vote in a lot of states.

There are more cigarette smokers on the streets of Keen than Marijuana. Why isnt that an issue. Or, is it really just about Marijuana? People dont need cars, just a bike, or their own legs. Keen in small. As far as the smoke from the stoves are concerned, an electric heater will work nicely, along with better winterizing of homes. Marijuana not being a necessity is relatively subjective, depending on ones health.
