It is encouraging to hear there's still LE out there that rely on and want citizens to be armed and help. We just can't be armed in this state, that's all.

As I've mentioned before, we do exist. And in larger numbers than you might think.

Good read, good for Emily, and good for pro-Murica LE.

I've met some fine pro-2A LEO's at the MDSP Barracks Westminster and in a tangential matter, many thanks to the MDSP Corporal who had me dead to rights speeding this past Sunday while late for church with the family. I wasn't going THAT fast but 12mph over would have definitely been a crappy ticket/points/insurance hassle and he had every right to issue it instead of the warning I received...and I'm not even a cute girl with a short skirt and overflowing bosoms!

i dont doubt for a second cops here and else ware believe in ccw but as long as we have obozo in the white house ,or anyone like him, and the ga in md is so anti gun and anti ccw we wont be allowed to defend ourselves in public here. i just hope everyone here votes pro gun and that project dino do some good here and that in 2016 we get a better more pro 2a administration in dc.

For this year's elections, I'm hoping for a power shift in the Senate and status quo in the House. Then, maybe Rand Paul for POTUS in 2016.

Any 6th District-ers out there, are you guys fans of Dan Bongino? His CPAC speech made me want to get up and fight!

Do your research on the candidates. Get out and vote. Call the guys running. Know what they stand for. Let them know you are here.

Of course, less work for them.

Gasp...who would've thought. I can't honestly think of a single road guy who is completely anti-gun. I can think of plenty of "brass" (politicians) who are, but are straight up "yes men". I would have to estimate that 98% of LEOs are pro gun, 1% being anti (brass), and the last 1% who are on the fence.

Haha be careful, I know this trooper who stopped you. Come on in to the barrack anytime and we can talk guns.

I agree. The Sheriffs on the eastern shore have been pro 2A for some time. Wicomico County Sheriff Mike Lewis especially. A really great guy.
