so why are the feds enforcing federal marijuana laws in Georgia but not in Colorado and Washington or any other state that has legalized marijuana in some form under state law. seems like a violation of the 14th amendment if they aren't applying the law equally.

Just an update to all of this. Most of you probably don't know that Kyle Myers is a host on a podcast series with a bunch of other YouTubers. I had a running theory that another fan of the show "confirmed" for me. Fans have been known to send the hosts various things, even going as far as showing up at their doorstep to say hello. Apparently, Kyle picked this package up from his PO box, and it's suspected that a fan sent it to him.

The ATF has had a hard on for this guy for years, and any excuse they can find to mess his life up, they do. This was just another one of those times. It's all speculation at this point as to if a fan sent it to him or not, but I'd put a large sum of money on this being the case

Ok, he may get a pass on THAT package, but not the other drugs found after the executed search warrant? He had to have known the Feds had a stiffy for him, but evidently thought he was smarter than the whole of the .gov!

Stick a fork in FPSRussia, gun and dope in his home? Goodbye 2nd Amendment.

Mail busts don't work that way. Without "knowing and intentionally" being established, you'll lose the case. I have a great-uncle who was a US Postal Inspector. He said at the beginning of his career it was all theft and forgery, at the end it was all dope and child porn. In broad strokes, they were lengthy investigations, usually involving multiple deliveries, knowledge of the order, and then catching the person in possession. In this case, if the article is correct, more of the same drug was found at his home. So...

so why are the feds enforcing federal marijuana laws in Georgia but not in Colorado and Washington or any other state that has legalized marijuana in some form under state law. seems like a violation of the 14th amendment if they aren't applying the law equally.

The local sheriff enforced the drug laws (and I'm going to go out on a limb and bet with assistance of US Postal Inspectors, but just a guess), the ATF came in for weapon violations. If you're smoking dope in CO and lying about it on the forms at point of purchase, they can still come after you for that, even if DEA isn't going after the dope itself.

One more good reason to say no thanks when "Scooter " from high school attempts to hand you a joint at the bar bee que.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

She looks unbalanced.

Stop talking about the woman I love!

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Either way he's got a long legal road ahead of him

Wait and see.

Are there gun owners dumb enough to risk federal prison by owning guns and smoking the dope? Oh, yeah, sure thing. Just hang out in a gun shop or gun show and smell.

Is this guy this stupid? Maybe, maybe not. We'll find out together.

Apparently a petition to get a pardon for Kyle.

As a result of a non violent drug offense, Kyle (FPS Russia) was stripped of his Constitutional right to own a firearm and $400,000 worth of firearms. Firearm ownership should be available to all non violent citizens in the United States. FPS Russia was an entertaining and informative channel that many in the gun community knew and loved, now we should pay Kyle back with support. His pardon would right a wrong done to a non violent gun owner, and set the stage for more freedom in the United States.

Following the death of Keith Ratliff, and no arrests or explanation despite evidence pointing to murder, the ATF began targeting Kyle Meyers and raided his house twice, finding a miniscule amount of honey oil. Due to current federal law, that immediately resulted in his arrest and seizure of his firearms.

Kyle has served his time, but is still prohibited from owning firearms. It is abundantly clear that non violent drug offenses have been over charged for years. A pardon of Kyle would begin to make things right and provide hope for other peaceful citizens convicted of non violent drug offenses left defenseless by current law. By supporting this petition, you are helping restore the rights of a great American and helping defend your own.

Regardless of what you think of him or his personal choices, his YouTube channel was wildly popular, especially with younger folks. He was definitely popularizing and normalizing the enjoyment of exotic firearms, even if he did occasionally do some things that were cringeworthy.

I love the professional Russian. He had a great channel.
