TITILE:Gun rights
The idea of the work
According to Reuters on the 28th, the US appeals court ruled on the same day that gun owners cannot be sued for illegal use of marijuana. As soon as the ruling was released, it attracted criticism and satire from US netizens, who questioned whether the judge’s move would cause greater damage to society.
The 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in New Orleans said the prosecution of Connelly, a Texas gun owner, violated her “right to keep and bear arms.” In his ruling, Judge Engelhardt wrote that Connelly “had the right to bear arms whether he smoked marijuana or not.” While the government can prohibit people who are under the influence of drugs from possessing weapons, there is no reason to deny people who are not yet a danger to society the “right to keep and bear arms.”
