      Eastern Panhandle schools question:

      Harpers Ferry - I hear c.w. Shipley elementary is fantastic and Harpers Ferry middle school too.

      Realistic drive times from the Harpers Ferry area to BWI/Fort Meade?

      Nice. Moved to Harpers Ferry (zip code) from Frederick last fall. In the morning, traffic to Frederick seems really light unless road work or an accident. If I’m headed from Frederick to Harpers Ferry, if if get to the potomacc bridge by 4pm it’s pretty good almost all days.

      Hypothetical: How much would you pay for a MD Carry Permit

      Interesting thread. I was in Frederick MD for 40 years and lived a couple other places in MD before. I moved over to WV (eastern panhandle) a couple of months ago, mostly to go where less crowded, lower house cost, prop tax and income tax, and found their carry law as a surprising bonus. Have...

      EBT Glitch... and what do people do? watch!!

      It is a free sh*t army more than 50 million strong. They will burn the whole place to the ground before doing a days work. After the stores are looted, they will look to anyone's residence that may have something. I guess what I am trying to say is that there would be tremendous pain if that...

      EBT Glitch... and what do people do? watch!!

      Food Stamps, Housing Vouchers, Medicaid for children of poor parents are all anti-riot/vote buying payments. They also have created a culture that believe the government owes it to them to be provided for. Make no mistake, if that EBT system would go down for 7+ days you would see some pretty...

      Tuesday @ 11:00 a.m. Emergency Hearing

      The Health Care thing was considered ok because it was ruled a tax by the Supremes. There is another forced product like this that we call social security. Social Security is also just a tax. There is no set aside annuity for people who pay into social security, there is no contract between you...

      California legislature passes semi auto ban

      Along those lines, it used to be punishable by death to devalue the currency. Been overt policy for about 100 years now. Currency Act of 1792, section 19: Penalty on debasing the coins. -Section 19. And be it further enacted, That if any of the gold or silver coins which shall be struck or...

      O'Malley On CNN "Crossfire" Wed 6:30 PM

      Interesting poll at the end. People understand Maryland (parasite) is close geographically to the host, DC. DC is where all that money gets distributed, so the economy/jobless rate is much different in much of MD/NorthVA than the rest of the country.

      Now Shotgun is to blame at Navy Yard

      Saw the idiot mayor of DC today saying their tough gun laws can't work unless there are federal laws because there are no background checks in VA. Guess that idiot has never heard of the Federal NICS background check system?

      Mornings Update From The Gun Center

      They had a horrible reputation when I asked about them 21+ years ago when they were located on rt 85. I never bought from them (although I did look and had the same horrible experience as many others) because even without the internet you could get a copy of shotgun news and see prices, or drive...

      SAMPLE HQL

      Disagree. It is our own paying of the fees (and taxes) in MD that funds our own chains (figuratively). Like minded people leaving for a smaller government state speaks through action, and leaves more like minded behind who can willfully hand their rights and money hand over fist to the king of...

      Time to make copies of my 77R's and all other receipts and store them at a family members home.

      Musings on the viabiity of local gun shops after October 1.

      Agree with Biggfoot44. Total sales in MD will probably be 50% less in volume of a normal year (not this one). Plus this whole buying frenzy has pulled demand forward, meaning people bought in advance stuff they would have bought in future years and it will also have a depressing impact on sales...

      7 day wait post 10/1?

      The whole thing is done to discourage lawful people from going through the process, and our dear leaders consider it a political win. In the real world the proportion of criminals with guns vs. non-criminals is getting better for the criminals.
