SAN FRANCISCO (KFSN) -- A federal appeals court has upheld the government's ban on the sale of guns to medical marijuana card holders.

The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said Wednesday the ban does not violate the 2nd Amendment.

The ruling applies to the nine Western states that fall under the court's jurisdiction, including California, Washington and Oregon.

It came in a lawsuit filed by S. Rowan Wilson, a Nevada woman who tried to buy a firearm in 2011 after obtaining a medical marijuana card.

The gun store refused, citing the federal rule on the sale of firearms to illegal drug users. Marijuana remains illegal under federal law.

An email to her attorney was not immediately returned.

Maybe that's part of their end game. Let's allow them to legally smoke all the dope they want and then tell them they can't buy a gun because they smoke dope

Shall not be infringed must mean something different in judge speak.

Boy, never saw this coming.

So then how in the hell did Snoop Dog get his guns?

I wonder if robberies involving marijuana users as victims will greatly increase? Criminals are going to see easy, defenseless targets with items (pot) that they can easily profit off of.

I've never smoked pot, and even I think this is dumb.

Due fucking process, period. Self defense, and the possession of tools to effect that are a right. That right shall not be infringed upon without really good reason.

Good people drink beer and own guns. Good people use prescribed narcotics and own guns. And they want to target pot smokers? The only thing a pot smoker is going to murder is a Kit-Kat bar.
