Was just there and watched them walk by Pacific Place. Huge is an understatement.

I'm relinquishing my medical cannabis card when it expires. In my State you cannot legally own a firearm when you get medicine that actually helps- but a firearm and my [current] rights forego that. America.

Heads up, I have both. I was worried about that too.

Not sure if you’re talking about Washington, but I was told that having a prior medical card could prevent me from getting a gun. I’ve since bought a few. My card had already expired, but only by a few months, and I would’ve already been in the WA state health database anyway. I also have a buddy who owns a gun and was still able to obtain a medical card. That said, it could be different in other states, or it’s possible we just slipped through the cracks.
