    These things are bad, sure, but I'd rather see 10 OJs or Klan members go free (preferably to meet their ends at the hands of more prepared would-be victims) than one innocent man go to jail because of an unjust law. You can fight thugs, bigots and crazed football stars but fighting the state is hard.

    Maybe I'm just old fashioned.

    Amen brother, right with you.

    I liked the part where the statistics showed that 93% of applicants were granted CCWs. I'm guessing 100% of the 93% were police and correctional officers.

    When you're representing a defendant in a case at the pinnacle of the 2a debate, you don't come unprepared and sounding like you housed a pint of vodka and bumped a line of aderol before you left the restroom. Gansler destroyed that fool. Maybe that's why hes the AG and William's representative probably works out of an office on top of a cluck u chicken.

    I've seen public defenders stretched out from heavy cased loads 10x better prepared and spoken than that guy. Sadly, you get what you pay for in the judicial system. However, I don't see this case turning out much different in Marylandistan with a high priced lawyer.

    At Wal-Mart, buying more ammo.

    What he forgets to mention is out of a state of 5.6MM, only 783 permits (circa 2008) were issued for "personal protection", which is 0.01% Yes, read that "one, one-hundredth of one percent". Not to mention that if you narrow down all the applications issued, during that time, less than 2% of all issued applications were for "personal protection". The other 98+% permits went to: retired officers, judges, politicians, store and business owners, doctors, armored car personnel, prison guards, etc... NOT John Q. Public. So in all fairness, it wasn't 100% of the 93%, but 98.2%, of the 93%, if you throw in business owners, as well.
