The Honolulu Police Department has sent a series of letters to local medical marijuana patients that directly orders them to surrender their firearms or, presumably, face state sanctioned violence to remove them.
Signed by Honolulu Police Chief Susan Ballard, the letters “inform” patients that upon receipt of the confiscation order, a citizen has 30 days to turn over their guns to the police. This stunning move amounts to direct gun confiscation for people who have no history of violent crimes.
As Leafly noted,
“The existence of the notices, first reported early today by Russ Belville at The Marijuana Agenda podcast, was confirmed to Leafly News this afternoon by the Honolulu Police Department.
“The startling order comes just three months after the state’s first medical marijuana dispensary opened in Hawaii’s capital city.”

Not only a second amendment right violation but a violation of a person to be secure in their papers and property without due process. They would need a warrant to come in and search as well as stating what is to be seized.
Marijuana is safer than heroin, safer than alcohol, safer than tobacco, safer than oxycodone yet the Government doesn’t steal things from you for using them. Hmmm.
Good!
The stuff grows wild in Hawaii and they think people weren't smoking it for years already? I see a huge court battle soon.
Government has a plan people!
Hope so 7;08. This is not going to go down without a fight
Judge will sign a warrant to seize all firearms. Add few paragraphs describing firearms and ammo. Probably could get a no knock warrant because of firearms... no doubt maryland is next.
Nope, won't withstand the court test.
What guns?
I lost all of mine in a tragic boating accident.
There's nothing right about this. It would be more rational (but just as illegal) to take guns away from chronic drunks.
Hopefully someone will stop this garbage
Possession of marijuana is still a federal crime no matter what a state says. One of the questions you answer when purchasing a firearm is do you use illegal drugs. Just saying
Drug use is a bar to owning/purchasing firearms. Says so on the form you sign under penalty of perjury. Under federal law, marijuana is illegal regardless of state laws. If you sign up form medical pot, you are subject to lose your right to own a firearm.
11:13....
Why don't you and 11:06 bust out some Pom-Poms and start twirling around?
I know --- you guys are the great white hunters and SEAL TEAM 6 vets.
Only YOU guys can handle a firearm.
Went to the range a couple of days ago and ran off about 200 rounds on full auto SAW, an Uzi, an MP5, and the one I really like, an AK-47.
You wouldn't want to be on the wrong end of any of them.
QUIT -----PLEASE --- with agreeing on every little nick and cut these slimy two-faced hypocrites come up with to restrict or ban certain weapons, ammo types, and what is REALLY galling is how they have managed to very quietly slip dozens of NON-VIOLENT crimes into the lists of reasons citizens can be banned FOREVER(!!) for possessing a weapon.
How in the hell does one get punished FOR LIFE for something that has NOTHING TO DO with violence?
You don't see the big picture, huh?
Cheerleaders are too busy for actual thinking and reasoning (or standing up against the slow but sure disintegration of our RIGHTS.
Cheerleaders often need someone to guide them in life and solve their low IQ problems.
Keep cheering!
Molon-labe!
