Joe Rogan Uses Drugs & Owns Guns

The law in Texas states “an illegal user”. Texas has medical marijuana now. The license is registered through DPS. They can rule you cant own firearms if your “condition” prevents safe usage, not THC.
Texas has a list of conditions, one being nerve damage like fibromyalgia. Which I’m guessing is the go to for most rec users.

All of which has absolutely nothing to do with federal gun laws.

I agree.

We should look into Joe Rogan for tax evasion.

That too lol

Hunter Biden is no way comparable to Joe Rogan in this regard. Hunter has been implicated in the distribution and trafficking of drugs. Joe Rogan uses cannabis recrestionally/medically. BIG difference!


ATS seems to have developed a case of refer madness recently. Are they pushing this s*** on FOX or something?

You are aware you can privately purchase a gun without a background check?

I'm curious do you actually believe someone who consumes cannabis should loose their 2nd amendment rights?

What about alcohol?
It kills far more people yearly than cannabis.

As a patriot it should be your duty to oppose unjust laws across the board not complain the boot should be applied equally. Only stooges do that...

“You are aware you can privately purchase a gun without a background check?”
You can get a gun lots of ways but if you use drugs you are in federal violation.
States may issue medical weed cards and not care if you own a gun but if the feds find out you have a gun and are toking it’s a felony

Let's not forget Elon Musk smoking weed with Joe Rogan, on his show.

And we know Elon Musk has licenses for guns, as he has recorded himself at times.

Link

Or maybe he owns all that without a license.

Maybe it wasn't his, right? He borrows things, he doesn't buy them. Anything is possible.

Elon Musk reveals he sleeps next to two guns

If you use a schedule one drug & use guns no matter who’s or how you got them , it is a federal violation.

That is correct

In Texas, If Joe has a Texas medical MJ license he can legally own a firearm, he can also get a carry permit. Medical MJ in Texas is a little more stringent than elsewhere as far as conditions but Joe has lots of money for a Dr to get him most anything he wants. I would assume he’s covered his ass, IDK. As far as anything else he could just say he’s not addicted to anything.

In Oklahoma it’s perfectly legal to have a MJ card and firearms, including open carry. Not sure about other states. You can get per state info on MJ and firearm legalities at the link I provided.

But the Texas Department of Public Safety said that they don’t think participation in the state’s Compassionate Use Program makes a person ineligible to own a gun or get a Texas License to Carry. However, a patient’s underlying condition could make them ineligible. If a person’s medical condition could make it hard for them to make good decisions, DPS may send the case to the Medical Advisory Board under the Texas Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) for review and advice.

Yes but he is in Federal violation by smoking weed on YouTube and admitting 10s of thousands of times his multiple drug use .
State laws don’t protect you from the Feds on this scenario. Until weed is legal on the federal level it is a felony to use it while owning guns by any means as well using them . Joe Rogan does all the above and is by default guilty of using a schedule 1 drug and shooting guns on the minimum

By medical definition I am addicted to the substance and would require medical intervention if I wished to stop taking it some people need heroin to survive bad nasty drug

That’s a different addiction. You need it for medical reasons. No one needs heroin or crack to survive from a medical condition

Is Rogan a felon?

No?

Possession is not illegal

Are you done yet?

using , owning a gun by any means , keeping guns and shooting guns while using unlawful drugs is a felony. This is why Hunter Biden is being charged with a federal felony.
Hunter wasn’t caught using drugs but rather blabbed to the whole world about his unlawful drug use and that is what prompted the Feds to look at his gun purchase timeline weighed against his admission of drug use .
It’s clear cut and simple….. if Hunter is guilty so is Joe Rogan or just legalize weed already on the federal level and be done with this nonsense

Feds were told to stand down on most MJ laws in the Obama era. With the exception of drug trafficking of unaccounted for product by the state of the arrest. I haven’t looked but can you link someone being busted by the feds for smoking a J? I’ve certainly never heard of it for years and years. Selling MJ is also illegal according to the feds but my city has one or two dispensaries on every corner just like a lot of states and cities. It needs to be federally decriminalized and it will be eventually.

Do you have any proof that he actually owns, or has purchased, any guns?

You can still use and posses firearms in the state of Texas, you just can't OWN them.

"Who is prohibited from possessing a firearm in Texas?

Under federal law, people are generally prohibited from possessing firearms if they have been convicted of a felony or some domestic violence misdemeanors, or if they are subject to certain court orders related to domestic violence or a serious mental condition."

It doesn’t matter if he owns guns or not in one scenario…. Weed is an illegal schedule 1 drug according to the government right ….? So it matters not because JR admits & films himself using unlawful weed according to federal law right ….? Then JR has plenty of videos of him shooting guns , talking about owning guns and having a conceal carry permit for guns .
Even if Texas allows medical cannabis card holders to own guns and conceal carry them with permits doesn’t negate the federal felony of doing so .
If JR has a medical cannabis card in Texas he incriminates himself federally every time he films himself shooting guns & talking about having a ccw for guns and shooting guns
The feds say you cant use any guns , own them with or without background check or store them on your property or vehicle if you use unlawful drugs or admit to unlawful drug use while being in possession of a gun just like Hunter did and got himself a felony charge. JR is committing federal felonies

How do you know he doesn’t have a medical card? Perfectly legal in the state of Texas if he does. Feds wouldn’t touch that with a ten foot pole guaranteed. It would set precedent that they don’t have the resources or the desire for. Hell, a good part of DC would be arrested. Yeah, not going to happen.

Im not talking about what the feds are willing to pursue… the law pertained to Hunter Biden … then why not Joe Rogan www.dallasnews.com...
No matter any of our thoughts on the matter there is hypocrisy going on with two very high profile men one being the president’s son and the other the most listened to man on earth .
I for one don’t think drug use is something that can take your gun rights away …. You either commit crimes or you don’t…and using drugs in your private life is no one’s business

Joe Rogan is one of the most open users of cannabis, '___' , shrooms etc… yet he owns guns & a conceal carry permit. Joe smokes weed with other gun owners on his podcast/youtube channel infront of millions, yet is still allowed to lie on his federal background checks in regard to his drug use ?

Hunter Biden whom I have no respect for is being charged for owning a gun & admitting to drug use when purchasing said gun . Once again Im not defending Hunter Biden in any way , but this is hypocritical of many Rogan fans who claim Hunter Biden is a criminal .
You cant have it both ways . Either Hunter is cleared of wrongdoing , allowed to use drugs & buy/own guns or Joe Rogan needs to face federal charges.
Many members here are Rogan fans who believe Joe to be conservative , yet hate Hunter Biden while calling him a criminal ?
Hypocrisy is horrible as is unequal justice.

very valid point …and hopefully soon weed will be legal on the federal level

Sorry, didn't read the 200+ replies to the thread, but I agree which is to say that neither of them should face charges, as drug prohibition is altogether wrong in my opinion and should not be a thing here in the US. Certainly not at the federal level at the least, certainly not affecting second amendment rights.

Made a thread about it:
Why The USA Must End Drug Prohibition

Not necessarily. I make it a point to ask people from various states about the particulars of cannabis laws when I encounter them.

The Texas medicinal user I spoke with said that lozenges and tablets were offered, but cannabis in its smokable form was not made available to that person, and was not allowed as I understood it.

Perhaps things have changed since that person's experience, or perhaps I and they were somewhat misinformed, but as far as I know that is the nature of Texas's medical marijuana law. It is a weak, watered down medicinal use law that does not allow for actual direct use of the plant in its natural form. Only specific, sanctioned preparations are allowed.

Please! There's a huge difference between Joe's "legal" use of
medical cannabis and Hunter Biden's "illegal" us of crack coc aine. Huuuge difference there pal!

Crack coc aine is a horribly addictive, destructive, lethal and violence causing drug and we all know that...have we forgot the horrible crack epidemic days of the 1980s and '90s already??

There is no argument here, your argument is null.
Marijuana and crack are absolutely and unequivocally two different things and believe me I know. I grew up on the Streets of Philadelphia during those glorious crack riddled days or I should I say "daze", believe me it wasn't pretty and I haven't seen anything like the horrific and absolutely devastating effects of crack coc aine use since, let alone the marijuana use of potheads.
The worst I've ever seen potheads do is raid the fridge at midnight!

Oh, is the question whether or not you've ever used drugs or is the question whether or not you are a drug addict? It would be pretty difficult to prove you're addicted to shrooms or dmt lol, or anything really... unless you were dumb enough to admit it in a memoir no one asked for. Next.

on Form 4473 asks the purchaser: “Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?

If the state allows for lawful use of marijuana, or you use marijuana where it is legal, or medical marijuana. And you’re not addicted. Then it would be lawful use.
