| Honolulu Police Dept. to Pot Smokers: ‘You Have 30 Days to Turn over Your Guns' |
| 2017-12-01 |
| [GunAmerica] The Honolulu Police Department is demanding that medical marijuana users turn over their firearms. In a letter dated Nov. 13, Police Chief Susan Ballard drew a line in the sand. It’s either your weed or your guns. "Your medical marijuana use disqualifies you from ownership of firearms and ammunition," the letter reads. "If you currently own or have any firearms," it continues, "you have 30 days upon receipt of this letter to voluntary surrender your firearms, permit, and ammunition to the Honolulu Police Department (HPD) or otherwise transfer ownership." |

| #7 Great question. Personally I'd tell them to go pound sand (does best Recardo Montalbon Khan voice) And in Hawaii....there's lots of sand. Lots of sand. |

| #6 This is a fine point -- federal law prohibits you from *buying* a firearm if you are an illegal (under federal law) user of MJ, but does it prevent you from *owning* a firearm? Anyone know? |

| #4 They ought to something about their homeless population first. Probably more pot there than in the rest of the city. Doubt the use is 'medical', though. |

| #3 The problem is they will come and take them. Assualt style, and likely kill anyone in the home in the process to avoid having lawsuits and witnesses. These are Democrats we are talking about, they have no hesitation or second thoughts about killing you for your own good and to demonstrate their power. They re convinced they are right and anyone that disagrees with them is wrong, therefore evil, and therefore subject to whatever force they decide to use whether appropriate or not. |

| #2 Sorry, lost in a surfing accident. Anyways, rights to firearms is explicate and precedes these commerce controls. Ammunition? Cartridges are inherently safer than scissors other than throwing them into campfires. Your ass is showing, who is the law group here? |
