There is nothing new here.
The law prohibiting users of illegal drugs from possessing firearms has been around for decades.
There is no place in the U.S. where marijuana use is legal. The closest that we have come is two states (Washington and Colorado) that have removed state law sanctions against use. However, so long as marijuana remains illegal under the federal Controlled Substances Act, it remains illegal in those two states.
The trend toward legalization is becoming clear and is developing some momentum, but it still isn't legal.
i cant help but think you support this idea. the feds are still over stepping their authority by using this against people in those two states. the key word there is "state", because all of the states were arranged to be their own sovereign states. the federal government was meant for regulating interstate commerce, not effecting the people in those states because of the laws that each state chooses to pass. it would be like the FBI coming to arrest you for using bottle rockets on the 4th in Washington because they deem it federally unlawful, while the local sheriff was enjoying the show you put on.
If, at the time you fill in the form, you are not actively using drugs, simply answer "NO". After all, you just quit didn't you? -- Right after that last joint 2 days ago.
But seriously: If there is no defined way to QUIT (time expired since last joint), then you can create your own criteria. (One day, one hour, one year, since the last joint).
Finally, an instant cure for Glaucoma.
On the 4473 it asks if you were an unlawful user "within the last year", IIRC.

11.e. Are you an unlawful user of, or addicted to, marijuana or any depressant, stimulant, narcotic drug, or any other controlled substance?

Isn't alcohol a controled substance?
