Is being handicapped a good and substantial reason in Md? I've looked and can't find an answer.

When I was in college. I interviewed ...a representative from the house. They stated...that to achieve one “you need to have an actual reason to fear for your life”. It was an interesting interview.
Without any knowledge of the MD DNC and speaking completely without any factual basis: I would not take the bet that a ranking member of the MD DNC could not get a CCW permit in a minimal amount of time.
Actually, a number of years ago, they passed law to make it even EASIER for elected state officials to get a permit.

I’ve heard of permits being offered/issued upon being elected (and even at least one case where the permit was rescinded when holder failed in a bid to be re-elected. I never knew there is actually a law making it easier for our “representatives” to get one.
Having worked in an officer of a Delegate that had one, and was there when a new Delegate got one, they have to go through the same process, background check, training, fingerprints, permit fee. I believe the new Delegate got the permit in a shorter amount of time (21 days or so), but still the same process, interviews and all. The Delegate got to keep the permit after leaving office, not sure if they ever got it renewed though.
Ummm, don't think so...Cite please.
This happened back in the 90s.
I don't recall the exact details, but it just made the process easier and more automatic for them.
My instructor pointed out that “assumes risk” jobs are - while you have them - pretty much a G&S gimmee. Say, being an officer of the court, that sorta thing. I’m sure somebody has made the case that being an elected public official rises to the level of assumed risk by default.
How the hell did we get to this point in our language? Subject/verb (dis)agreement is maddening.
