There is a fundamental problem with both forced shall issue and national reciprocity. This is the fact that each state can pass laws to limit local legality of possession and essentially make more and more places gun free zones. If they were to make local parks, doctors offices, children's play area etc gun free zones, your right to carry would be heavily restricted and put all law abiding carriers to be at risk of violating the law just by walking down the street. Baltimore has already introduced law to do this.
Maryland general assembly will double down, next year it the new standard will be 'REALLY REALLY good and REALLY REALLY substantial'. rationale from Animal House, DOUBLE secret probation, will be used as the model.

I am not a pessimist by nature, but MD will only go "shall issue" when they are forced to by the Supreme Court and not an instant before.
Sort of. It's not quite that simple. Legally speaking, the DC ruling has no impact on Maryland, because Maryland isn't in the same Circuit for Court of Appeals as DC is.
Maryland, which is in the 4th Circuit, has the controlling precedent set in the Woollard case which held Maryland's system of ok.
You could use the DC case to say "Look what other circuits are doing" but they could just as easily say "Good for them, we don't agree with them."

What REALLY upsets me is that an activist jerk Judge in Hawaii can stop immigration control in it's tracks nationwide (what, three times now), but the same can't be done for Shall Issue. I mean REAL Shall Issue, not the Bullsh1t MD "shall maybe issue if I feel like it and you invest enough time and cash".
I'm in favor of enacting it and see what happens.
We know what not doing it will do.
what we have now.
