If they aren't prohibited persons under the code, they should be okay. In our system, you can't usually be held responsible for other people's crimes. The crime isn't "the gun." The crime is that a prohibited person possesses it.

If he smokes weed, he lied on the drug question. As have, I would bet, a fair number of members here.


The instructions state "court, board or commission", but doesn't state specifically what constitutes a board or commission.

Simply being bipolar does not equate to being "adjudicated mentally defective". Adjudicated implying that there was a *legal* ruling of mental defect, which basically means you do not have the capacity to make your own legal/financial decisions. If simply having a mental illness equated to being mentally defective, probably 30-50% of the US population would need legal guardians to make their day to day decisions.

We couldn't get Jakub Kusmieruk, a 7'4" Pole, to touch it either.

They're basically talking about whatever government body is responsible for making those types of legal decisions in the place that the decision needs to be made. It's not just "anything that calls itself a court, board, or commission."

Different states do it different ways. For example, in some states, an involuntary commitment is ordered by a court while in others it is ordered by something like a "County Board of Mental Health."
