Sorry SFG. With all due respect to your person I do not believe that petty things such as this should bar someone's 2nd Amendment rights. As others have already said I see no difference between alcohol and that green stuff some of these people like to smoke. Having said that I have never smoked a cigarette or "joint" and honestly I don't know why anyone would want to inhale the burning fumes of plants (tobacco or marijuana). Smoking has never appealed to me but it is a non violent action. This is a free country and people should be allowed to chose their poison if they so do wish and not have to worry about losing their God given rights to self preservation.
Same goes for non violent felonies but that's a can of worms for another day.
However, sadly... the current law is being enforced and therefore Kingballs will just have to wait another year.

In SFG's defense, we're talking about two different issues really. He's saying - eat your vegetables and you can have ice cream after dinner. Which vegetable we're talking about doesn't matter. I dig that.
Right now the law says that if you smoke pot and get caught, you're not getting any ice cream rights. If we don't think this is proper, then we need to identify what is wrong, draw attention to it, and get changes made.

We can't change it, the local government gets way too much money for fighting the war on drugs. If they took away the crime of a little pot, they would lose millions of money that is scammed from the people and put straight in the pockets of the few that fight the losing battle on drugs and their bosses.

I could not agree with you more. At one time, alcohol was also illegal. Our current law states that now this drug is. I am NOT an advocate of drugs in any form. I also do not believe that our 2nd Amendment rights should be taken at the drop of a hat either.
If government is here by our consent, why do they keep taking away gun rights without our consent?

Whether or not we agree is immaterial.
Whether the Nebraska State Patrol agrees is very material.
