I'll wait for the definitive answer too, but it would seem legal to me. Just like they can exclude alcohol or tobacco products.
Objectionable but legal, I think.
His property, his rules...
Booze and Butts are not covered in the Bill of Rights.
Nor does the Bill of Rights apply to actions taken by private individuals.Booze and Butts are not covered in the Bill of Rights.
This, absolutely.Legal under maryland law.
How would the landlord find out though? I recognize it is a little hard to store a large number, but even with a small guns safe...okay so you are storing documents and valuables in it. They can’t legally tell you to open it to prove there are no firearms in it. They can’t legally inspect the interior of the house/condo/whatever with no prior notice. Going out shooting/hunting, get a non-descript case or two to put them in.
Not like you can be thrown in prison for it. The worst that happens is you get evicted.
If I were renting I wouldn’t personally sign a lease stating that.
I would go with Common Areas = Premises . A home is a home. Can't take that away. Many leases have illegal language, No one questions it.
ughh, I'll be looking to rent a place in glen burnie within 2 months, I really hope I dont run to this stupid clause everywhere.
Depends. Is this public housing? If so, the legality is unlikely, but it will take a protracted lawsuit to fix it.
If its is 100% private property, perfectly legal. Rent somewhere else. I personally would not feel safe anywhere that did not allow me to protect myself. Worse, I would suspect that the burglars would know which homes were safe to invade.
