Overview: The U.S. Supreme Court decided this week not to hear Jackson County Sheriff Mike Winter's legal challenge that asserted that Federal U.S. law trumps state laws when people with medical marijuana cards seek concealed handgun permits. This is a big win all around. It's a win for the OMMP patients, for States rights, and for the 2nd amendment of the Constitution!
There you have it Mr. Winters. Right there, in black and white, clear as crystal. You get nothing, you lose! Good day sir! You are not an agent or employee of the Federal government, and therefore it is NOT your job to enforce Federal laws. Get it through your thick skull, OMMP patients are granted equal rights to every other medical patient, there is no exception for OMMP patients to the 2nd amendment or HIPAA privacy laws just because your ignorance blinds you from reality. The voters in Oregon made their choice in 1998 and you have to live with it. Your ignorance and intolerance will no longer be accepted.
Though you may believe otherwise, you don't make the laws, and you cannot ignore laws that allow for legal alcohol anymore than you can discriminate against OMMP patients. The Oregon Board of Pharmacy voted on June 16, 2010 to officially recognize cannabis as a legitimate and safe form of medicine for a variety of illnesses and ailments, most predominantly of which is relief from chronic pain conditions. On top of that, the American Medical Association and many other groups support medical cananbis law reform.
Cannabis is able to improve quality of life for tens of thousands of Oregonians, and you can no longer spit in our faces and unjustly discriminate against us. I've never owned a gun, but thanks to you Winters, I'll now soon obtain my CCW and be yet another American practicing my Constitutional rights of the 2nd amendment and inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
