It's arguable because the form asks if you're an "unlawful user", IIRC, and one could argue it's lawful at the state level, but illegal at the federal level (which is what the form is for anyway).

Per the constitution, federal law trumps (heh heh) state law. Nothing that is illegal at the federal level is legal at the state level. Every state that allows it is flying directly in the face of federal law, and every attorney general and the federal attorney general is derelict in their duties to allow such things to happen.

Isn't it already unlawful to operate a vehicle under the influence of such a substance?

Isn't it unlawful to handle a firearm under the influence of such a substance?

GUIDELINE FOR CARRYING A CONCEALED FIREARM IN THE STATE OF HAWAII

18 United States Code § 926C allows a “Qualified Retired Law Enforcement Officer” to carry a concealed firearm in the State of Hawaii if all of the following requirements are met:

You currently are not under the influence of alcohol or intoxicating or hallucinatory drug or substance while carrying a concealed firearm. See 18 U.S.C. § 926C(c)(6).

1. Note: The State of Hawaii takes a zero tolerance position on carrying a concealed firearm while “under the influence” of Updated 11/1/14 271185_43
alcohol or intoxicating or hallucinatory drugs or substances. The LEOSA Firearm Policy defines “under the influence” as “any amount of alcohol or other
intoxicating or hallucinatory drug or substance, in the blood or breath.”

But that doesn't stop impaired drivers from getting behind the wheel. But, Hawaii is confiscating firearms from those using medical marijuana, but not automobiles, even though people are 10X more likely to kill someone in a car accident than a firearm; sober or not.

To me it is akin to taking someone's driver's license.

So, unless you built the firearm and ammunition yourself (to include the powder, lead and casing, thus not affecting commerce) it would be illegal to own if you are an unlawful user of any controlled substance.

Ok, thanks. I was going with the less formal of never being asked if I was high when purchasing.

What is the significance of Freds?

Awhile back, they were being "proactive" and were using an ammo purchase log with DL info, date,time and amount. I opted to do business elsewhere.
