      Crime in Frederick County

      Have lived all over the US and have spent the last 16 years in Frederick. Our 2 kids went through the FredCo school system, off to college and came back here to work. Both were well aware of drugs in their schools and our community as well as other issues. As with everywhere else we lived...

Grew up just outside of Philly in the '70s and '80s...Saturday night drag racing on Front Street...Rolling Stones at JFK...Flyers at the Spectrum...wife's engagement ring from Jeweler's Row...eating my way through RTM...hanging out at Penn's Landing...running the Art...

      Who Doesn't Have Their HQL

      I haven't taken the plunge primarily because I'm well stocked and nothing new has hit my "gotta have it" list since the HQL hit the books. My fingerprints and virtually everything significant about me is already on file in multiple places across the USG in direct support of my employment, so...

      Anyone have a coyote hotspot in Frederick?

      Yep, I MB up there too. What I was referring too was a clueless group that apparently didn't realize it was deer season prime time...rode right past my blind and continued riding in the area for 30 minutes or so. I packed up and left. Have seen a few deer up there while riding...not many...

      Anyone have a coyote hotspot in Frederick?

      My son and I hunted the Watershed for many years...7200+ acres with lots of elevation change. Be prepared to walk...no 4 wheelers allowed... Frankly, we never saw much up there... Stopped hunting there when the crowds grew and when some clueless mountain bikers rode through the area I was...

      Robbery thwarted by armed MARYLAND person.

      Great discussion guys...I'll keep following...all my positions and opinions have already been expressed by others. I think the same questions you've all raised and addressed come up in every Concealed Carry or home defense discussion I have with firearm owners, 'average citizens' and the...

      Poll: Will you get an HQL?

      Mr H and I have seen eye-to-eye on this all along... No, I will not get an HQL. That said, I understand that some people out there want/need something now and have no immediate choice but to comply...do what you need to do. Fortunately, I'm not at that point... I'll buy cash and carry...

      How to deal with this type of anti?

      What Biggfoot said... There are multiple subjects which my friends and I don't agree on. But the fact that we stay friends and respect each others' positions gives us many opportunities to talk about those issues. I've found that the best way to change someone's mind is to start with where...

      I Get 1911's!

      One of my regrets in selling handguns over the years was letting go of my perfectly modified (for me) 70 Series Colt in the mid 1990s. I later bought a SIG 220 which I've thoroughly enjoyed since day-1. I still have it and love to shoot it, but it's just not a 1911. Then within the last year...

      MY HQL IS ACTIVE!!!!

      I'm in exactly the same place. For me, rushing out and getting an HQL that I don't need right away isn't going to happen...especially when it just gives MOM the chance to say, "Now that wasn't so bad, was it?" and to high-five with his peers and thumb his nose at his detractors while he...

      All this is worth it...

      In my mind it's about arrogant idealism versus logical realism. IMO, to believe that we humans can control whether or not evil things happen is arrogant and idealistic. We all have free will, so $#!& happens. I prefer to be a logical realist. Given that $#!& WILL happen, I choose to be...

      Cresap Rifle Club is looking for members.

      We've been there many times over the past 13 years or so. Yep...there's periodically an RSO there who's a little full of himself. I fully appreciate the safety focus of the range and the RSOs...that's one reason I started both of my sons shooting there. I wanted them to learn that range...

      Hopefully the Dems in Maryland don't ban the fallowing rifles

      Yep...I just traded an Obama phone and a veggie burger for one along with a PETA t-shirt and a dozen Coexist stickers that I got at Starbucks...and $100. Still available at www. momisaflockingwetad. com. They are the best for shooting around corners... Be sure to order one with a triple...

      extended?

      I TOLD them it was the Germans that bombed Pearl Harbor...nobody believed me... It will likely be tough to know what to believe over the next few weeks without really doing some concerted homework and paying close attention to all the jargon and semantics. Yeah...there will be some dumb or...
