Drinking alcohol is legal (after a certain age) in all states of the Union. Most every person here would agree that alcohol and firearms do not mix. So why would marijuana and firearms mix? Prescription or not, marijuana alters a persons thinking processes, and slows down reaction time. Same as some other prescription drugs. Ever read the warnings “do not drive a vehicle or operate large and / or dangerous equipment” while using certain prescription drugs? A firearm can be dangerous equipment, no?
I got in a bad motorcycle accident in 2006. I was taking Vicoden like it was candy. Normal dosage was one tablet every 4 to 6 hours. My Doctor had me taking one tablet every two hours. To put it crudely, I was effed up for about two weeks. There is no way I could have safely handled a firearm. No way.
