OFFS! Srsly MD? Seems like all our FReepers in the NE quadrant of the country need to head west somewhat. No doubt my kin are spinning in their graves in the Hudson River Valley of NY due to what's become of where freedom for this country started. Look at it now. Shameful.

Safety off, aim, fire!

Repeat if necessary.

[[“self, family and property” must be protected.]]

How can it be protected when you have to have your guns locked up, with trigger locks and in a lockable gun case, and your ammo stored elsewhere under lock and key?

This is great. I can see all the gangbangers and hoodrats standing in line to get their permit.

These dumbasses coming up with this need to have a required 30 day training program on the Constitution...

ABC GMA said yesterday that Baltimore was one of the BEST places to live in America.

[[But now Maryland gun regulators are insisting that anyone who wants to defend his home with a firearm must have a month of special training.]]

Knowing of course that not many people can take a month off from work to take the course

Guaranteed that even the police going through the academy don’t spend thirty days on firearm handling. Any necessary safety training could be accomplished in a couple of hours.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You just have to tell the burglar or rapist to wait for about 15-20 minutes while you get your stuff ready. They will understand.

Or do like Joe Biden says. If a stranger is at the door, blast it with your shotgun.

How about a month of special training to have an abortion then, since we know abortions are always fatal.

I wonder if my military time would qualify but then again they probably would not issue one unless I was in the Chicom or Russian Army or perhaps even the red coats.

We of course expect robbers, burglars and home invaders to be courteous and wait 30 days until we get our house defense in order.
And when they do show up, we expect them to patiently wait 10 minutes or so while we locate, unlock and load our weapons.

How about 9 months of training to have an abortion?

Gottlieb said the training requirement in Maryland “imposes a burden on a citizen’s ability to exercise his or her Second Amendment rights.”

This is more than a burden. This is a PROHIBITIVE burden.

This 30 day training requirement is designed to be more than a deterrent it is designed with the knowledge that few people will be willing or able to devote the time and expense to complete the training.

Despite our RAT governor and lawless State Police PA still has strong 2nd Amend support.

Western MD has more in common with PA than it has with Baltimore.

We will gladly trade Filthadelphia for Western MD.

30 days of training would surely disenfranchise people...

If simply having to show ID to vote disenfranchises people...

Overall though, I kind of doubt that courts would rule that requiring training is too much of a burden.

But who knows these days?

Funny how things go from “not enough” to “way fricken tooo much” real quick?

In GA you have to be able to prove you can carry the gun out of the store. 😄

Yup. Like we would take a lot of the bordering California counties into the NV fold if they want to come on over. ;-)
