I sent out emails on Friday and have gotten numerous responses back for our side. none from the opposition. What's to prevent Frosh from simply doing this to every 2A bill? Clearly he doesn't care about his reputation on the matter.

MJD438 · Apr 9, 2012

Skipped to Agenda Item #6 (Senate Rules Committee).

What number are we?

MJD438 · Apr 9, 2012

Back to Agenda Item #4...Senate chair is jumping around the Agenda rather than following in line.

Right, I got that. But doesn't the current HB in its original format just clear the way for [edit] approvals of CCW [/edit] or is it only the fact they added the ammendments that is the problem? I thought that in addition to removing the requirement for LEO training, it would open the door to approval of the CCW applications. Looks like I was mistaken. It sounds to me now that if this is passed its bad but if nothing happens then we still wait for CCW approvals. Please clarify to the non-legals among us.

If it passes (as amended) pending CCW apps become null and void since we do not have the training (which has YET to be defined)....see what happens?

Frosh is trying to take advantage of a chicken/egg scenerio. IE: You can apply for CCW only if you have had the requisite training...but guess what...the training does not exist yet....training criteria is not explicitly spelled out in the amendment. It's up to the discretion of the MSP.

If the ORIGINAL HB579 passes it has no bearing on pending and future CCW apps. The orginal bill is for retired police officers.

In the end, the amendments to HB579 amount to pushing back against the most recent ruling of G/S being unconstitutional. It affords the MSP a way of rationing CCW permits (as they do now).

Third Bill in Agenda Item #7 - http://mlis.state.md.us/mgaweb/agenda.aspx?sen

Shit - just moved to Agenda Item #9...gotta love last minute changes issued after the session opens...

kronusthebonus · Apr 9, 2012

... wait what?

kronusthebonus · Apr 9, 2012

Did they just pass over 579, it was such a blur...

Senate is back in session, but the Agenda was changed after the session opened. The bill we are concerned about is on the Agenda as part of Special Order #81 (third item within that SO).

No, that was HB 975. They have not gotten to the Special Order yet.

It better.

It is so ironic that they spend so much f'ing money on the dumbest projects and yet, the legaslative website looks like it is from 1993 and they are still using real player.
