Great idea. Personally I'll just get my daily news from regular sources, not a gun forum. That's where I get gun info.

Yep...I grew up in the northernmost end of the CP Hollywood. Before 495 was built, there was a path through the woods to Sunnyside. We built many tree forts in those woods. So many nails used there my dad said those trees will rust before they rot. Lots of fond memories of my 11 years there.
Only place I ever lived where EVERYONE knew how to use a 4 way stop. Saw 6 cars safely go thru the intersection at the same time there more than once.

I always say, you only need to be able to count to three. I never understood the many difficulties people have at "all way" stop signs.
ETA: And a tie goes to the car on the right.
This^^^ Somewhere along the line people just don't seem to get this part of the skill set into their collective noggins--
The problem in SoMD ist the absence of regular news sources. There are a few websites that publish news releases from the sheriff and pictures the fire depts send them, but the area is under a near complete blackout by regular news media otherwise. If an accident kills more than 3 at a time or if there is a multi-victim murder, we get a 3-liner on the DC stations, but other than that Hollywood, MD might as well be somewhere in Indiana. Never any follow up. The cops can find a body in your neighbor's yard , until there is a press release from the state attorney announcing an indictment, you won't get any information.

What kills me is that people fled Chuck County, PG and Northern Virginia because of traffic, congestion and for the rural surroundings of Southern AA and Northern/Central Calvert County. Now that they are here they whine about the lack of big box stores, restaurants and other "amenities".
My God people - didn't you look around before you moved here?
Kinda of like liberals that fled California because they ruined that and now that they have resettled in Texas and Arizona, they are trying to turn that into the same kind of place they left.
Actually had a woman in a Prius ask me at the Dunkirk BP gas station why I needed to drive such a big truck and that I was one of the reasons for global warming! I asked her where the batteries for her Prius came from and why she was at a gas station. She muttered something about "stupid redneck" and walked off.

I bought my dream home in St Mary's in 1991. Lived there 17 years, Golden Beach. Within 5 years the charm was gone as quickie marts began to litter rt 5. Then the Charles Co dirt bags started coming to town to do their crime. I loved my house and property but had to leave as I had seen this before in Bowie. Bowie was a great place in the 70's but turned to a ghetto.
I moved my family to Texas then Alabama.

WNC thus far for us; tell me (us) more about Alabammy, please!
Yes!
Please!
We are looking very hard at northeast
coastal Florida because of the tax
advantage (No state income tax on our
Federal pensions - currently, we send
almost $19K per year to Maryland) and
the 2A situation.
For sure, there are other problems there.
So, tell us about ‘Bama.

Alabama is perfect for us, especially in retirement.
Don't get to crazy about the "no state tax" in Fla. untill you check deeper, like property tax. In TX there was no state income tax, but the property tax will kill you! I had a small home on 1/8 acre in San Antonio. My property tax was $3400. Alabama has income tax, but does not tax any form of retirement income. So I pay ZERO tax on my pension or SS incomes. I have a 1700sf home on 1/2 acre. I pay $475 per year for property tax. And when I reach 65 later this year, NO PROPERTY TAX.
Al is a solid red state. CC license is $20 per year. Open carry, no permit needed. I'm 20 minutes from my private gun club.
What more do you need to know?

My only regret with fleeing to AA is that I didnt realize everybody else was also. It is slowly being swallowed by PG and Bmore crime, with a growing influence of those that flee what they sowed in MoCo.

Just like the Lefties fleeing from CA to TX. They're bringing their Liberal ideals with them & will eventually turn TX blue.
