I read the recommendations and didn't see anything regarding the revolving door. I find it hard to believe that the most important tenant of gun safety, preventing criminals from getting guns was not included. Only law abiding are affected with the proposed suggestions. I'm also trying to figure out why you would need to be pre-qualified to buy a gun when you go through a check at the point of sale. Justv a harassment nuisance step, proving facts are irrelevant to the discussion.

Does it matter? Gun control isn't about Public Safety. It's about controlling you from Cradle to grave once they disarm you. If gun control was truly about Public Safety every law-abiding citizen over the age of 18 in the United States would be allowed to arm themselves and carry

When Red Maryland is right, they're right.

The Task Force released its preliminary recommendations yesterday. And you won’t be surprised to learn how right I was. The Task Force’s recommendations include other “health” related ways to combat gun violence, but the real meat and potatoes of the Task Force recommendations include further draconian restrictions on gun rights.
Here are the legislative remedies suggested by the Task Force to “Support Gun Safety Measures at Every Level of Government”:
Support local Anne Arundel County legislation to require reporting lost or stolen guns within 48 hours in the county. The current state requirement is 72 hours.
Support local Anne Arundel County legislation to limit access to firearms by minors by requiring unattended firearms to be secured with a child safety lock.
Support statewide legislation to accomplish the following:
Require buyers of rifles and shotguns to have a qualifying license and be subject to a background check prior to purchase;
Restrict firearm access for those convicted of alcohol-related offenses;
Restrict firearm access for those charged with or convicted of intimate partner violence and develop a process for these individuals to surrender their firearms.

Aren’t most of those already in place (more or less) with the exception of the LGQL? These people are f’ing geniuses.
Yes, more or less. This will be used by Jumping Jen, Guzzling Liz and the rest of the gals and cucks at the Moms Who Can't Get Action as further "proof" that we need long gun registration, raise the child storage law to 52 and lop hours off the stopwatch to report lost or stolen firearms.

Losing your guns with a DUI is new, isn't it?
Ugh, the first thing that popped into my head was a picture of hogan sitting around with old ladies in pink shirts while happily signing each of these bills into law.
I don't recall seeing them at the meetings. Looks like Monday morning quarterbacking to me.

Well they are important people, don't you know.
That's kinda their MO.
You can't swing a dead cat in this state without hitting a gun grabbing lefty so it's not really a great bit of prognostication to declare in advance the outcome when a gaggle of them get together.

One of the Task Force vice-chairs is unhinged.

It wasn’t enough for them to create a “gun violence” page to make fun of our “gun violence prevention” page; to post my home address online; to mail me photographs of loaded, pointed, semi-automatic weapons; to stalk behind me as I walked into hearings, and to make sure I knew whenever they were taking my picture.
After the last task force meeting on Thursday, gun violence survivors, widows, mothers who lost children, and their supporters posed to take a photograph. We were photobombed by We Will Not Comply who pushed their way into our picture. When I politely questioned their motives, they declined to move. We had to take our picture elsewhere.
I was there. It didn't happen this way.
They wanted to loom over us, to let us know they were in our space, to scare women with bullets that can’t be removed from where they lodged in their bodies and survivors with broken hearts this Christmas, celebrating our resilience and ferocity in the face of more threats on our lives.
While some members of the task force were chosen because they were gun owners — and some wear their sidearms to our meetings — the letters that they send to the editor of The Capital and to the Task Force record continue to claim there are no gun owners on the task force.
Way to misrepresent everything we said, ms. Chamblee. At least the Capital will keep printing anything you write.

Should we start posting her facebook comments or write another letter to the editor listing those?

Uh huh. That's why the Task Force leadership had to be pressed on compliance with the Open Meetings Act. That's why Jen Purcell repeatedly closed-down citizens who sought to participate, only to be informed that the "Task Force meetings were not open to public participation, but only to the select few appointees," and that subcomittee activities were to be held outside of public oversight. Public comment sessions were an afterthought, and were hastily arranged (initially scheduled for *after* production of the preliminary report.)
And as Adrienne Mickler, Executive Director of the Anne Arundel County Mental Health Agency, pointed out in her presentation - "We don't have a gun violence problem, we have a violence problem." We have had plenty of discussion on this and other points (which the Task Force documented with video.)
Andrea, the only one who wants "silence" is you ...

Wait, what? Andrea, are you saying that you can accomplish the Task Force's objectives through public outreach campaigns? You know, you can do that right now, without legislative involvement. In fact, if you *can* accomplish the objectives, right now ... why wouldn't you ???
