RE: Maryland gun law question
"Addiction" is a medical diagnosis and only a doctor can determine whether someone is addicted to a substance (i.e. drugs) or abehavior (i.e. compulsive gambling) or not. However, as bigbulls points out, the question is not limited to whether or not you have ever been diagnosed by a physicianas an addict. It also asks if you are an unlawfulluser of controlled substances. The fact that you have been cited for using marijuana is prima facia evidence that you do use illegal drugs and the burden of proof is probably going to be on you to somehow show that you are no longer a user of illegal controlled substances.
