The number one reason for Marijuana users in South Dakota not getting certified for their Medical Cards? Guns. Almost every illegal Marijuana user I encounter is terrified of having their guns taken away, losing their second amendment rights, and the ability to hunt. Hopefully after watching this video, some of those concerns will be put to bed and if not, let us know what second amendment fears are keeping you from getting certified for your Medical Card.
A Federal Judge in Oklahoma upheld the second amendment rights of Marijuana users by ruling that the Law Preventing Marijuana Users From Owning Guns is Unconstitutional. This ruling is a pivotal moment for legal and illegal Cannabis users across the country because it establishes a precedent for protecting the second amendment rights of Marijuana users going forward.
Unfortunately, data pertaining to gun ownership and the number of firearms in South Dakota varies wildly between sources. This is most likely due to how lax South Dakota’s gun laws are. By not requiring registration, licensing, or permitting South Dakota has absolutely no way of determining the number of gun owners or the actual number of firearms in the state.
