Supreme Court says unlawful drug users may legally possess firearms
The Supreme Court unanimously upheld lower court rulings that an unlawful drug user can legally possess a firearm, challenging a 1986 law. Ali Danial Hemani, a dual citizen found with drugs and a gun, argued the law violated his Second Amendment rights, while the government claimed it aligns with keeping firearms from dangerous individuals.
