The sponsor of this bill is part of one of the most corrupt political families in Maryland.

Guaranteed there's something related to this involved in this bill:

Those Conoways are trash, pure and simple. I hope they all get what's coming to them- painful syphilitic lesions leading to horrible and lingering paralysis

amoebicmagician · Dec 23, 2013

And just for the record, of all places to enforce the duty to retreat, BALTIMORE?!

WTF?!

In the place you're MOST likely to be assaulted in your home, let's make you that much more vulnerable.

Sounds like Conaway is looking to go hunting.

They made no bones about using their influence to get old man Conaway that permit in the first place. I can't wait to hear Jr.'s testimony on this one.

Honestly, is there any chance of this passing? I read it, and think "wow, that seems like a dick move no matter what your political persuasion is". It's one thing to have a state law pre-empting your county law; it's a whole 'nother thing to have a state law stating your county may not pass a law. :-P

Do we really need "Anti" SYG laws.

Come on idiots.

gamer_jim · Dec 24, 2013

I thought MD had fairly strong case law for SYG. Does a new law throw out case law?

fightinbluhen51 · Dec 24, 2013

So...dirty politician, wants to make a SYG law in Baltimore, so he can shoot his neighbor / critical media member when he is mildly (allegedly) accosted by said person?

Or am I just completely speculating?

Also filed for the rest of the state. :sad20:

Maybe I'm reading it wrong. But it looked to me like it was to prohibit the city of Baltimore from passing a SYG law; as if they ever would.

I wonder how the City Council is going to react to be dictated to like this.

CharlieFoxtrot · Dec 24, 2013

That is one bizarre bill.

Gryphon · Dec 24, 2013

Yeah, I'd like to know what Conway's "good & substantial" was? I guess as long as you are connected being a 78 year old elected paper shuffler is enough!

XCheckR · Dec 24, 2013

This is bullsh!t

OK that fits.. the Baltimore bill is state preemption. Then the money shot.

Not surprising....

amoebicmagician · Dec 24, 2013

crooked as they come. I'm so glad that someone who completed the 10th grade is the kind of great mind we have leading us.

I reiterate, I hope that whole family gets hit by a bus

MigraineMan · Dec 24, 2013

You are obligated to retreat ... from the children ... pointing the guns at you and demanding your wallet.

But seriously, I don't have the luxury of hours or days to armchair-quarterback the retreat options when some thug comes at me with a <gun, knife, stick, rock.> (profanities redacted)

Mr H · Dec 26, 2013

Finally getting to these.

Just call these the "Fish in a Barrel Acts".

Ridiculous attempt at anti-SYG. More like KYAG.

DC-W · Dec 26, 2013

We gotta do something about all these white-hispanics shooting all these 17-year-old black teenagers!
