      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      Precisely. Maryland already has a statute called Intoxicated Endanger that makes it a misdemeanor to endanger the safety of a person or their property while intoxicated.

      MSI SB 1 law guide

      Which, as we both know, is completely illogical, non-sensical and contrary to Bruen.

      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      There is no text, history or tradition to support prohibiting the possession of weapons in restaurants that serve alcohol or even while drinking. Intoxication is another story. A law prohibiting being armed while under the influence of alcohol or drugs would probably pass muster.

      MSI SB 1 law guide

      Absolutely. Baltimore City's initial collapse was unplanned and disorderly but at a certain point politicians realized they could guide and weaponize the collapse. Baltimore is deliberately allowed to exist in its current state to justify expanding state power and to conceal and facilitate all...

      MSI SB 1 law guide

      As infuriating as this is, I can't help but laugh. The members of the MGA just can't help themselves. The prohibition on carrying a firearm on private property that's conspicuously posted and/or where you have been personally advised that you cannot carry firearms will almost certainly survive...

      House Bill 1180

      Unfortunately, it's not insane - it's just evil. I no longer have any illusions about what the members of the General Assembly are trying to do. The MGA is trying to destroy civilization in Maryland in order to usher in a different system than the one we enjoy currently; there simply is no...

      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      I have dealt with numerous justified uses of deadly force (not just guns but also knives and bludgeons) involving private citizens and never have I encountered a citizen who shot or stabbed the wrong person or fired "indiscriminately." Your average citizen respects life and property and is not...

      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      It would be prudent for them to attend a well constructed and comprehensive training course. Unfortunately, many have no access to such a course due to geography and poverty. If such a course is required for them to carry a firearm in public then they effectively have no right to keep and bear...

      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      First, being employed as a Police Officer is a privilege that must be earned not a right that exists from birth. The State has every right to insist on rigorous training for its agents and to hold them to certain standards of proficiency, not only in the area of firearms but across the board...

      FOURTH CIRCUIT DECLARES RIGHT TO LIVESTREAM POLICE

      I believe it was Pericles who once said that "Just because you don't take an interest in politics, doesn't mean politics won't take an interest in you." The same is true for criminals in Baltimore City. Baltimore City is, by and large, a burnt out husk. There are exceptions but that's the rule...

      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      Training and live fire requirements are the equivalent of poll taxes and literacy tests and should be treated accordingly.

      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      So far there haven't been any issues that I've seen. There have even been a few 911 calls where permit holders have captured criminals in the act without firing a shot. What we haven't seen so far are the self defense shootings that many were expecting and I think there are a few reasons for...

      FOURTH CIRCUIT DECLARES RIGHT TO LIVESTREAM POLICE

      The issue isn't the Officer having "enemies." The issue is that the vast majority of the people "livestreaming" Police, in my experience, are criminals. Just so we're perfectly clear, by "criminals" I'm not referring to people engaged in traffic infractions like speeding; I'm talking about drug...

      SB1 (2023) - Criminal Law - Wearing, Carrying, or Transporting Firearms - Restrictions (Gun Safety Act of 2023)

      SB1 is zombie legislation. Whether it gets killed in the State house (unlikely but increasingly possible), in the 4th Circuit (quite possible but not a certainty) or by SCOTUS (99% certain, one way or the other), this legislation has no future. I can tell you now from personal experience that...

      Blood, gore, self immolation in the streets because of your carry permit

      There is no duty to retreat in Maryland in the face of robbery (carjacking is a form of robbery). It is an exception to the general duty to retreat. Other exceptions include being attacked in your home and when performing the duties of a peace officer. You have the right to use deadly force...
