However, it also provides a handy, dandy list of every firearm owner in the country.

See ubc via prohibited persons list .. no time to go over this again...but ...the problem with owners cards can be solved...if we work with folks on the design.

At some point we may need to engage on this issue....not today..and likely not before the court gives us some support.

District 4:

http://www.uselections.com/md/md.htm

4th District Candidates:
Anthony Brown (D)
~ Ex-Lieutenant Governor, Ex-House Majority Whip, Attorney, Iraq War Veteran
<<snip>>

Did you have to post Anthony Brown in giant letters? I thought we got rid of him the last election. :banghead:

Looking at the Republicans first.
Robert Broadus website http://www.justiceandliberty.us/ He's way to conservative to be elected in this state.

Rob Buck Does this guy really exist? There is virtually nothing on a Google search, other than he is running.

George McDermott He has run for office since 2004. He is further out than Broadus http://www.secretjustice.com/

David Therrien He seems to be pro gun, but the link on his campaign page doesn't work http://therrienforcongress.com/ On the Sun questionnaire, he said we need to enforce the laws that exist. Doesn't sound like he is going to roll back any laws.

That was depressing, so I did look at the Dems. I guess I wasn't depressed enough
Warren Christopher Retired Lt Col. pro immigration, his own words tell the tale: "I support the President's Executive Order on gun violence. I am also an advocate of the 2nd Amendment and believe in responsible gun ownership. As a retired military officer, however, I strongly believe that weapons designed for the battle field should stay there."

Glenn Ivey ~ Ex-Prince George's County State's Attorney http://www.iveyforcongress.com/ He's eager to stand up against the NRA

Joseline Peña-Melnyk State Delegate, Attorney, http://joselinepenamelnyk.com/ Anti NRA

Terence Strait Federal Employee Supports background checks

Alvin Thornton Dead website

The Sun website is useful

What 4 judges to vote for in the circuit court (court 5 - Maryland)?

Any info on these judges running?

???

Thanks!

Mr H · Apr 15, 2016

Vitale has been a 2A friendly for a long time.

Minuteman · Apr 15, 2016

Any other recommendations appreciated.

I see these signs all over - 'vote for these 4 judges' ; but I know nothing about them.

Mr H · Apr 15, 2016

Correction... Vitale... Always get the two confused

Vitale has been in public office a long time. Pretty conservative; 2A friendly. I have known her for a while. She is slated with the other 3 judges you reference. She is a wiz at the political machine and wouldnt have slated with the other judges if it wasnt beneficial to her.

I dont see Afzali on the list for CC5.

Howes was a former AAPO. I dont know anything else about him, he is endorsed by his former commanders for what its worth (inlcuding George Johnson ... ugh)

I dont know the rest of the "4 judges" except that they are "Hogan Approved", for whatever that is worth. I have met them and they are nice enough, but I havent really spoken with them.

How do you get those two confused?

Excellent.

Hogan approved, is good enough by me this late in the game. I'm about to drop off my absentee ballot, and my better half wants to go stand in line and actually vote.

Just to be clear, what four judges (by name) is Hogan, or you, or anyone here recommending?

thx!

On your ballot its the bottom 4 judges by name, they are the ones Hogan has endorsed.

Yes I believe those are the ones.

Mr H · Apr 15, 2016

correct

Minuteman · Apr 15, 2016

Done.

thanks!

To another point...

How come when I say this people roll their eyes, but when this guy says exactly the same thing people lap him up?

Mr H · Apr 16, 2016

Can anyone explain how, less than 18mos after having his sanctimonious ass handed to him (and owing a cool half-mil to the unions), Buster Brownstain can loan his campaign $400K??

He must either have one helluva lawyerin' gig, or he's a lucking fiar.
