You have no right to life without the means to protect.

Heaven forbid, we use the correct term - "God-given Right".
Wasn't it Delegate Riley who always submitted the "Repeal of Finding" bill? Since he lost in the Primary , who will step up to do this?
Smigiel, Dwyer?
Seriously, I thought an attorney (officer of the courts) and MD Delegate would not have a problem getting a CCW permit.Last night I went before the Handgun Permit Review Board to challenge Maryland's infringements on our God given rights under the 2nd Amendment. I challenged the arbitrary and capricious "good and substantial reason" definition and the State Police limited interpretation of the two recent Supreme Court decisions.
I will get a written decision, (a denial) within 30 days, then we challenge it in the courts.

Adding parties to a lawsuit of the nature of Woollard after the fact is a bad idea. .
Sounds to me like he didn't even go to MDSP talking the talk. I get the impression he went in there talking about constitutional rights. That's a guaranteed ticket to denial since the only right that organization understands is your right to remain silent. Now if the good delegate would have gone in there and talked about being specifically targeted for violence due to his position in the legislature, and his upcoming proposal for a 25% increase in MDSP funding... I'm betting Smigel would have been met with more friendly faces and "something" could have been worked out so that he left with permit in hand.
That's just my totally uninformed, opinion based on no hard evidence what so ever.
He went at it as one of the ruled class not one of the ruling class. That makes him a class act in my book and further demonstrates how the current system needs to be ruled UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
The actual words are "Endowed by his creator", you call your creator "God", I called mine "Dad", until he passed. RIP Pop.
I imagine Smiegel will file on his own in state court. The federal angle is already covered. Not sure how I feel about this, other than "it's his right". It depends on how serious of a case he puts up - he is a politician which makes him prone (in my mind) to grandiose gestures that may lack in true substance. I admit this is not a fair analysis of a man I have never met - but I am painting him with a broad brush based on his chosen occupation. He's a politician and therefore stuck with the stereotypes that come with the job.

I read the first couple posts, but there is just too much for me to read in this thread. Can anyone tell me a brief time line of this case? Basically, what is going to happen next?

Still nada. It kills me to say it, but I'm wondering if I misread and/or misinterpretted something. Damn supper gets in the way of this important stuff...
