    WaPo: MD reps backpedal on Council of Govts gun policy after some VA reps revolt

    COG retracts gun control policy, sends to committee for more study

    Awfully nice to see the O'Malley lackeys get walloped for over-reach after trying to sneak their gun banning policies across state lines. A well-earned nose-bleed facing 'real American politics.'

    Let's hope MOM gets a similar nosebleed if he ever actually makes it in front of national voters.

    WTF is the COG- the Council of Governments? Holy crap- as if we don't have enough government, politicians are creating their own where there was none?

    Evidently this Council is making policy across state lines, without any accountability? Who gets to vote on something these jokers concoct? What, there'd be a three state referendum? This isn't democracy.

    This is like an intrastate UN or something. Scary scary scary.

    COG isn't all bad, it does help with emergency response when counties go mutual aid and that happens all day long within the fire depts.

    Also the Fred. BOCC also sent a letter against this policy if I remember correctly.

    WTF... the next person that uses for the children should be slapped a few times, stop using children (Sandy Hook) to advance you potlical, personal agenda. :mad54::mad54::mad54:

    “We have a national crisis going on as it relates to our communities,” Toles said. “It’s just a sad day. We shouldn’t have to choose politics over the safety of our children.”

    Are you not choosing politics when you take a position on the gun debate.
