Republicans have given us some pretty bad gun control. Remember Mr Republican Big Second Amendment Guy "take the guns early and go to court later without due process"? oh yeah, hes in the Oval Office now. Remember all those Florida Republicans who voted to take guns away from 18-21 year olds? That was so long ago (about 24 months actually under FL Gov Rick Scott).



The only difference is D and R is that Rs will stab you in the back while Ds will stab you in the front.


The bottom line is that if enough constituents demand something, it wont matter what party is in office.

I like your optimism. Please shed some light on how you’ll be getting two thirds of the state to suddenly stop thinking and saying what they’ve been thinking and saying for their entire adult lives, vis a vis guns, AND get them to vote in our favor on that topic when it’s bundled in, vote-wise, with every single other SJW instinct and policy backed by enormous piles of cash from people like Bloomberg, the public employee unions, etc.

What you’re hearing is that upending the left’s grip on this topic through legislation can’t be done. You’re ignoring that the people who feel that way are focused instead on both federal elections and their impact on the judicial fight that will actually help in this area. If you’ve got a secret plan to change the world view held passionately by the large majority of people in the state, you should share it now, even if you’ve for some reason not done so in the past.

So, once again, your solution?

Oh, yeah, run down the crowd here. Good move.

Not exclusively 2A, but Chairman Smith is holding hearings in the interim on bills that are NOT YET OFFICIAL (meaning, they have not been presented to the Full Senate in a live hearing of the full body after the full body has been gaveled into session).


Next week's attack is on the Maryland Law Enforcement community; what comes next? Who knows...


Start watching the regular Annapolis crab wrappers, as I bet we start seeing more attacks on our rights outside of session, so that they can move bills quickly once the session gavels in...

Let them reform the police. Maybe then the police will start accepting wider G&S reasons on handgun permits when they realize the Democrats aren't on their side.
