Any Iowa Lawyers On The Board
My wife's nephew got busted with marijuana in his car in Iowa and he had an AR15 in the trunk. They are going to see a lawyer tomorrow but it sounds like he is getting charged with some sort of gun charge to go along with the marijuana charge. I was looking at Iowa laws but the only thing I can find is if he was distributing the marijuana then they could charge him with extra shit. As far as I know he only had a small amount for personal use.
Anyone know the law in Iowa for just possession and having the AR15? Maybe point me to the statute so I can read up on it. More out of curiosity and also so I could fill my wife in on it. |

This was my reaction. It's ludicrous that the same thing would be 100% legal in Colorado (and elsewhere), but it could cause the kid serious issues long-term. Hope they can get it handled reasonably.

Careful. In most states even if you have a permit to carry, it’s voided if you are intoxicated. So being high or perhaps having a controlled substance and a fire arm would still be a violation

Federally you're not allowed to buy or possess firearms if you have any marijuana. It doesn't matter if the state has legalized it or not. If you buy and use/own state legal weed you can be charged for lying on a 4473 federally. Simple rule, if you want to own guns legally, you can't use marijuana regardless if it's legal in your state or not. In many ways it's stupid, but that is the federal law.

I've seen this up close and personal with a former co-worker that ended in a horrible tragedy. I hope there's sanity in this instance and not some ADA trying to make a name for him/herself.
