    Can’t get a firearm with a medical marijuana card in my state. My home is incredibly secure, though, and I’m in a very blue area.

    I do need to get more active with Democratic organizations in my area, you’re right.

      By Federal law you’re a prohibited person (can’t buy a gun) just for MJ use, even if it’s legal in your state. It’s a bad law that Dems also want to keep in place because their platform is to use whatever tools necessary to disarm as many people as possible.

      That’s fair! You can probably grab a tazer or pepper spray, which would help a lot.

      Democratic meaning the process, or the party? The DNC isn’t helping much when it comes to resisting fascism, more sleepwalking into it.
