I think you have some bad info. Just because I have a card does not mean all my other rights are given up.
Not sure what the laws are there but Oregon ruled you can own a Concealed Weapons Permit and Medical MJ card. Makes sense as do they do not stop people with other scripts from getting their CWP.
Crossbow is going to get you in trouble, you be shooting from a distance when more than likely you could have run.
Nothing beats a nice razor sharp knife or oak walking stick for close Self D. Good luck.

I couldn't find any news on that through Google, but I doubt its true or wouldn't happen. It's only for small arms if anything they would ban 4a or 5a vests but it won't happen cause its proven that vests save lives and anyone has a right to own one, besides felons.

Looks savage dude loll I think all you need to do is give a warning shot with that thing

Found this but I don't know what Type 3 is?

HR 378, dubbed the Responsible Body Armor Possession Act, would make it illegal for civilians to own “enhanced body armor” such as helmets, shields or armor plates that meet or exceed Type III protection. The bill would exempt law enforcement officers and other government officials.

Here in Cali though Dadio Im pretty certain that at least from what I googled that you if your a current medical marijuana user the dealers will ask you if you use marijuana and you have to reply honestly or if the cops busts you, thats a felony... I'm not sure but maybe you can get around that through gun shows tho, buying from private citizens where their not required to do background checks

Wow man makes no sense, all the booze, prescriptions and guns you want, but no reefer and guns. Well I ain't giving up that right, for sure. It's not fair or constitutional. Oregon ruled correctly there, thank goodness. Fuckin idiots.

Haha nah but u guys got me thinking a shotgun would not be a bad idea.... I realized I am screwed if I miss that first shot and I could always move to Colorado if I wanted a MMJ card... Hmm mm I don't know... What u guys think shotgun or MMJ card?

what's the point of getting a MMJ card in a recreational legal state? does it afford you some extra benefits? I've been looking at southern CO to relocate, but I want to wait a couple years and see how the influx of potheads moving there affects the state as far as housing/jobs/etc. The initial financial boom they are seeing is going to taper off and stabilize as the novelty wears off.

This shit pisses me off. It's just them getting their ducks in a row so that the citizenry has no defense against the government. F'em. I'll buy illegal shit they don't know about and keep it well hidden..F'em.

Much reduced price.

CA has no rules against it.

1 - get CCW permit (not easy)
2 - get MMJ card

The two are not connected at all. As far as using firearms to protect a legal grow? It happens.
And the punks get killed. The DA will not charge the home owner. They always say, they are investigating, but it comes to nothing if it was a lawful killing, in a home invasion. It nothing to do with pot. The punks could have been after the jewelry for all DA cares.

We have Castle Doctrine.

I just started looking into it..only diff i see is 20-25% tax on rec, 10% on med, which isn't that big of a deal, at least for me..you'd be saving around at least $30/z. Personally I'd be willing to pay extra to not register with another government agency..stay under the radar as much as possible.

what's it cost to register for a MMJ in CO?..I know here it'll end up costing you a few hundred, with registration payments, doc visits for rec's, etc. so a few hundred up front, and get a discount or a few hundred extra over the course of the year. Seems to be a wash to me, except like i said with MMJ, it's just another record the gov has on you.

We don't register in CA. The govt has no idea who are the MMJ holders. That is a doctor/dispensary thing only, unlike many other States. If questioned by the Law about your holdings, show the card. It has a number registered in a non-govt database. You put in the number and it says YES/NO to validity.

On the CCW permit in my state it specifically asks if you are a current user of marijuana,coke,heroin,etc.
So if you tell the truth..you don't get a license..if you lie, it COULD turn into a legal issue( perjury?) they get you coming and going.
and the kicker is i know 2 people licensed to carry who are on prescription anti psychotics, both of whom have had some pretty bad episode when they weren't taking their meds correctly..scary.

You get your CCW first, you lie about all the intrusive questions as usual. You don't admit to using to get a job,do you? Of course not. But, you have to stand a background check and they call your references. If no one rats you, it cannot be proven. IAC, get that first, lie as little as possible, and then get the MMJ?

MMJ is not considered "drug use."

It is a bit moot, however. Even if you are in Riverside Co., like my Doctor friend, you have to have a real need, like working the Emergency Room at midnight.

BTW, CA has very interesting weapons laws. There are a lot of weapons banned , all together.
- crossbow of any size (only for hunting with Permit)
- blow darts (paintball blowguns OK)
- butterfly knifes
- etc

But, "deadly weapon" is anything you use as a weapon....even a rolled newspaper.

If its for protection I think you could do much better......like a sharp stick or a sling shot both of which could be more handy in a confrontation than a mini crossbow.
One fall back if you have no weapon is CRAZY most people don't fuck with crazy people.
So ditch the crossbow and get a nice sharp stick and if that doesn't do it for you start practicing your best crazy !

Crazy has worked for me at least twice. In school i had someone threaten me with a razor blade, i was like wtf are you going to do with that? i grabbed another razor, there was a box of then there( voc tech school..which explains alot right there.lol), and cut myself a bunch of times, "if i do it to myself, you think i give a shit about you cutting me?" Later, I had this punk pull a knife on me in a bar, i took my knife out of my pocket, threw it to the side, put a crazy smile on my face, looked him in the eye and just said "you better make the first one count, casue i'm going to disembowel you, alive, if it doesn't ." he backed down pretty quick.
Come to think of it, the people i roll with, we're all a little crazy, makes me remember the time my best bud got sucker punched in the face, he turned looked at the guy, called him a pussy, then punched himself in the face giving himself a bloody nose..lol..same guy that had a gun put to his head and all he wanted was to know what type of gun it was and if he could hold it, ended up becoming fairly good friends with the guy that pulled it on him because of how he handled it..
