Well our replies overlapped. I did my master's thesis on marijuana in early 1980s. MJ in Oklahoma then was about 4% and up to 10% in California and some strains up to maybe 15% in Hawaii. Today, average buds I Colorado are 17.1% and concentrated up to 62%. We are now seeing 2015 reports that 1 in 5 (20%) of people in auto wrecks have THC in the system. This is compared to 7.1% for all classes of opioids, vicoden, Oxycodone, Fentanyl, OxyContin, Morphine, Heroine, Opium base, etc. While it is hard to reconcile the data, just the 11% or so increase in auto accidents in Colorado should cause folks to panic. Problem is there is nobody being paid to study the issues much, except for the folks who stand to make Billions from legalization. So before we just legalize this new 62% THC and release it to the public maybe we should study it. I am not aware of any single Oklahoma doctor who actually came out and promoted this actual bill. Please send me links if there are any. Thanks appreciate the dialogue. My bedtime.A followup: I just read the ATF letter carefully, and the ruling is less nonsensical than I first thought. (g)(3) covers possession, but the letter also cites (d)(3), which applies to the dealer, and includes language about having "reason to believe" the buyer is an unlawful user. That's consistent with the position that having a card gives rise to a reasonable belief that the person uses.
One more reason we need to end the stupid prohibition on a plant.

See the Dept of Justice letter regarding gun purchase and ownership for those with a medical marijuana card within the story.
According to the letter, those with a card must answer yes to the 4473 illegal drug question because possession and use is still illegal under federal law......answering no to the question would be making a false statement which is a federal felony.

I have been telling people that for a few years now.
illegal under federal law.

Yeah, we might as well have people that are on pain management with opioids put on the no gun list also. Freedom and all...
