Just an FYI if you don’t smoke weed. Buy an AR15 and just be prepared. But if you do smoke weed. Buy it anyways but don’t admit you smoke weed. Ever.
what the fuck does this mean?
I think he's saying that you can buy a semiautomatic rifle if you don't use the Marijuana, but if you do use the Marijuana, don't tell anyone. Maybe they used the Marijuana before posting.
I’m dyslexic as F. So my writing is always wonky.
Since marijuana, or more specifically cannabis-derived THC, is still illegal federally and you mark yes when filling out the federal firearms paperwork you will not be allowed to buy a firearm.
However, if you select No, but do use cannabis-derived THC, and admit to or it or law enforcement finds out then you've committed a felony. It's the same law they applied to Hunter Biden's case.
Why they felt the need to comment on that specifically in this thread? No idea either.
Note: I'm not aware of any cases yet that are for hemp-derived THC products that meet the legality under the 2018 Farm Bill. Thats kind of a gray area currently, so you're taking your chances.
