Supreme Court Rules on Guns and Marijuana

The Supreme Court just handed down a landmark, unanimous ruling that marijuana users can’t be automatically barred from owning guns — a major win for Second Amendment rights. The decision, centered on a Texas man who used pot but never committed a crime, strikes a careful balance: it limits government overreach but still allows restrictions for those addicted or intoxicated. Surprisingly, even the ACLU and NRA backed the plaintiff, while gun safety groups opposed him — highlighting a rare bipartisan moment on firearms. With more states legalizing weed despite federal prohibition, the Court signaled that the government can’t assume all users are dangerous — especially when federal policy has, in some ways, normalized use. This ruling joins a wave of recent gun cases, including bump stocks and domestic violence laws, as the Court continues to shape America’s evolving gun landscape.
