I wonder if urban areas can get their votes in quicker so early results skew democrat and then the republican votes trickle in from rural areas?
In any case quite a night! It started off looking like it was going to be Brown and Delany, end of story. It's been a wild ride since then...
I appreciate the info (confusing as it is). I really would have thought this would have been sorted out in case law or something.
One thing to note is that I don't have a reciept or anything. This is a Thompson (not fully auto) that was passed down from my dad in the past. I'm not sure...
I've still got some of my firearms back in my home state. My dad is coming for a visit. As I understand it, it's perfectly fine for him to bring firearms and 20 round or small mags.
However would one's dad bringing someone their own magazines count as one of the things you can't do...
Maybe this is old news to people who have lived in this state longer. But I wasn't made aware that when I bought a pistol here I was entered into:
"The gun-ownership database, the Maryland Automated Firearm System Services, contains the names, addresses, driver's license numbers and types...
Paperwork doesn't exist for all of mine as some have been handed down through the family and are older than I am. I was planning to take some photos of them, maybe with myself in them, and e-mail them to myself (and hey, maybe some relatives this might be fun).
However the utility of that...
How are people seeing the possibility for a win in a referendum from this poll? There is some support for very basic 2A rights there.
But look at question 3. A bit of an odd question in that I think virtually all firearms are legal for hunting something.
But I'm guessing many...
The issue is that there are only a small handful of locations where your assumtion is going to hold.
In much of this state the actual election is the primaries, the general election is just a formality.
First, thanks everyone for your replies!
Based on some of the replies, is it that case that if there is a model line with different magazine capacities and barrel lengths that you can buy any of them and swap parts? I.e. the "combo" weapons are just a marketing thing where you get a second...
This is something we should have probably got going on earlier. The concept of tossing people out of office if they destroy rights, even if it's for someone else from the same party who may actually share their views.
Sort of the way people who steal physical things are punished or fired...
Anybody know what's in MoCo?
They get losing manufacturing jobs and that unemployment numbers matter if they're challenged by another Democrat.
In any case we're all calling/e-mailing them anyway right? Going on about our constitutional rights and our right to defend ourselves from...
So I got the following e-mail from MSI (It's OK to post these right?)
However it's a bit vague. If I'm going to call up I'd like to be able to express exactly what is in the area that will be leaving. Does anybody have any info on what companies are where? It seems like a good angle to...
I currently don't have a shotgun, but I'm considering getting one. First for home defense, but I'd like to be able to try my hand at skeet or hunting should the opportunity arise in the future.
I've noticed some of the advertisements for weapons advertised as being combo guns. They come...
Put in some paperwork today. They said it would probably take a month to go through. It'll be extra annoying if it takes more than 30 days because I was hoping to get another round of paperwork going once the waiting period is up.
At a townhall meeting I went to a picked up a flier for:
http://www.saintmarkpresby.org/2013/01/community-forum-on-the-prevention-of-gun-violence-february-21-7-pm/
Going through some of their commentary it appears they're somewhat open minded on this issue and aren't calling for the repeals...
I figure people are going to be taking the Metro or parking near the council office building, so Ambrosia is probably too far.
In the other thread I suggested TARA Asia simply because I think it's the closest sit down place to the meeting. (It's good too though)...
+1
For my 2 cents I'd like to add that people need to understand when to debate and when to have a dialog/conversation.
In a debate you're trying to convince a third party that you're right. The techniques that are effective in a debate will often leave your opponent thinking you're a...
While I wouldn't want someone to not go to Annapolis because of it, if you already can't go there is a town hall meeting in Rockville with the Lt. Governor, County Executive and others:

Anybody going to Rockville tomorrow want to get some dinner or hang out ahead of time if you're also going right after work?
There is a small Starbucks in the area if we want to support them, and it'd be easy to run into each other there .
If people wanted food beyond an egg salad...
