I'm pleased to see the USDC saw this order as the suspension of individual constitutional rights it was, something that would require an extraordinary emergency such as a time of war or insurgency, as in suspension of habeas rights, which still would be subject to review as soon as a court in...
$25,000 is peanuts. If you want to live in the city with a family and be able to have your children spend their school days somewhere that is not the execrable (and grossly overfunded, corrupt and mis-managed) D.C. School system whose payroll is the landing place for many of its graduates, you...
The legislation does not exclude either holidays or Sundays. It specifies a straight continuous day count from the day the application is filed which counts as the first day. The withholding of "not disapproved" beyond ten days is not in compliance with the law. It is really abuse.
Not surprising. Even high-end hotels are doing this. I had a meeting in SFO a couple of years ago and stayed in a convenient but expensive boutique hotel near Salesforce Center: no closet, only a panel with hooks and a niche with a curtain with enough room for your bag and a suitcase stand...
What is your source of that statistic? I would be surprised to find more than 3% of a whole population representative sample that would consume over 5 (12oz 5%ABV beer/6 ox 12%ABV wine/1.5oz 40% distilled spirit) per day. Maybe if you took a sample from E.D. admissions or a V.A. hospital, you...
The Venezuelan "socialist" leaders are as corrupt and venal as any socialist leaders in history. They grift plenty from their rackets, buy expensive personal things and have no shame in publicly displaying their swag. (There is a funny website just on the bling watches these crooks wear in...
If the cold air by the floor is cooling the safe and the guns, you will have to wrap the whole safe. Before doing that, a neoprene pad under the safe might work. Amazon sells stuff like that.
Why not housebreak the dog?
"I do solemnly swear (affirm) that I will support the
Constitution of the United States, and the Constitution of
the State of Illinois, and that I will faithfully discharge
the duties of the office of .... to the best of my ability."
This is the oath of office prescribed to be sworn by all...
Even if true, that doesn't matter to the WV voters. Seeing federal spending in their state, federal jobs with federal benefits and government job security is what matters. They don't care about deficit spending, national debt, a grim future of rising borrowing rates for bond issues, fiscal...
They were once a part of Treasury, at a time when there were fewer cabinet departments and when interdiction of goods smugglers was done by by the Revenue Cutter Service, a USCG predecessor (along with the U.S. Life Saving Service and the United States Lighthouse Board.) The USCG was under...
The state's selling a wear and carry permit and then making its use illegal amounts to conspiracy and fraud by the state legislature, never mind a violation of federal law as defined by Bruen.
This really isn't different than passing a state law that establishes a poll tax.
Maybe it is time to file a class-action lawsuit in federal court against the State of Maryland for fraud of honest services for soliciting applications for wear and carry, handgun permits, 77R transfer and charging fees for the same.
At what point in deliberate refusal to comply does contempt of the Supreme Court become an issue?
This administration isn't going to nationalize state guard to enforce federal law, but state government either complies with the law or it doesn't.
Hafers is a professional operation, good inventory. You can spend a while in there. Another is Antietam Firearms in Funkstown (east side of Hagerstown). Their hours are more limited, but they are good to deal with. Skeeters is very good for transfers and has a small handgun and long gun...
