Doesn't matter if you have the marijuana "legally" ... intoxicated is intoxicated is intoxicated ... doesn't matter if a "doctor" gave it to you, if it impairs your mental/physical/emotional abilities to a degree as defined by law as to render you too dangerous to possess a firearm at that time, then you're committing a crime if you do so.
