>There are plenty of gun valuing states who have legalized recreational weed and I've not heard of any indication that the feds have been using this pretense to snatch people's guns.

That's what I always thought of too, but I'm sure it really comes down to the votes from who we put in the positions of power. The gun laws were always the reason I heard of for weed still being illegal in NH. It sounds like they're in the works of passing a bill now to make it legal recreationally. I mostly just wanted to give some actual information on this in comparison to what 90% of other comments were stating.

So many comments blaming each side but no one giving any actual insight. So I guess I'll give some actual insight on the matter.

Now this may be a bit out dated, but back when weed was decriminalized (to some degree), the main reason for it not being fully legal was due to the NH gun laws. This is some info that came out back in 2017 so some new research on DEFINITELY needed, but it's better then the other comments blaming each side (which I for one find hilarious and scary because it shows how uneducated people can be).

Again from back in 2017:

"The department issued the order because federal law prohibits anyone who uses illegal substances from owning a firearm, and—so far as the federal government is concerned—marijuana is still a controlled drug. That means medical marijuana users who own firearms are technically in violation of federal gun laws."

Please correct/update this if anything changed and hopefully this was more helpful than the typical BS that the people actually involved in policts like to spew.
