Regularly smoking weed does not necessarily void a person’s Second Amendment rights, according to a new ruling by a federal judge in Texas.
On Monday, US District Judge David Briones dismissed a criminal indictment against an El Paso man caught with multiple bags of marijuana and firearms in his home. He determined that the Government couldn’t prove the man was high at the time of his arrest. Therefore, his prosecution represented an unconstitutional application of the federal law that bans drug users from owning firearms.
