Supreme Court rules for marijuana user prosecuted for gun possession

The Supreme Court unanimously ruled that the government cannot criminally prosecute a man for possessing a firearm simply because he regularly smoked marijuana. Justice Neil Gorsuch wrote the majority opinion, stating that such prosecution violates the right to keep arms under an expanded Second Amendment test. This decision finds the Justice Department's use of federal law barring unlawful drug users from owning firearms unconstitutional, creating significant legal implications for marijuana users across the country.
