About this episode
Shadd Dales discusses the shifting enforcement of cannabis laws related to gun ownership and its implications.
In the latest TDR Cannabis in Five presented by Flowhub, Shadd Dales breaks down a developing story around cannabis use and gun ownership—and why this issue is starting to shift.This is a topic we’ve covered before.And the reality hasn’t changed… the laws are still outdated.But what is changing—is how they may be enforced.According to reporting first published by Marijuana Moment, the Trump administration is now signaling it may stop pursuing prosecutions against marijuana users who are found in possession of firearms.Important point—this does not change federal law.Cannabis users are still considered “unlawful users” under federal rules, which means firearm restrictions are still technically in place.But if enforcement starts to pull back?That changes the real-world impact.In this episode, we break down: What the DOJ is actually signaling Why courts are starting to question these laws How this ties into cannabis rescheduling And what it means for consumers, operators, and the broader industry Because once enforcement starts to shift… policy usually isn’t far behind. #CannabisNews #SecondAmendment #CannabisPolicy #GunLaws #CannabisRescheduling #TradeToBlack #Flowhub #LegalUpdate…
