Re: BATFE Declares No Guns for Medical Marijuana Users
To discuss this issue intelligently, it's important to remember this is not a new rule. Users of illegal drugs have been prohibited from purchasing from an FFL as long as I can remember. The ATF letter is not creating new policy or law. It's reminding FFLs of a long standing rule. Federal law also prohibits firearm sales to illegal aliens. That rule applies even in a "sanctuary city" because city rules don't override federal law. If that makes sense to you, then you can see by the same token, state mj laws don't override federal law.
