Hogan Addresses G and S!!!

He is at the gym working on his quads today.

LOL. I have no idea why it posted so many times.

Oops.

He let everyone else do the heavy lift and when the smoke clears, he claims his long stand support for something that he never demonstrated actual support for.

If he had done this pre-Bruen, he would have been eviscerated; and MD courts would have quickly ruled that he didn't have the authority and overruled his decision.

Post-Bruen; the odds of court lawsuits overturning his decision are 0.000001% (since nobody wants to annoy SCOTUS) so he can do it.

EDIT: Also, if he had done it unilaterally, the Office of the AG (aka Frosh) would have issued an opinion that him doing so was illegal.

As it is, only a day or so after Hogan made his announcement - Frosh's OAG issued a report saying that G&S was unconstitutional.

I bet you Frosh gave Hogan a verbal opinion, and delayed releasing his written opinion on G&S = unconstitutional for a day or two, to let Hogan take fire from every Democrat in MD.

FLtWS has NEVER supported the 2A or Maryland firearms owners. His statement regarding Bruen and his support of the 2A was hypocritical lip service intended to leave you wait a sweet taste in your mouth after eating sh!t for his entire term. He signed or failed to veto (ETA: almost) EVERY gun control bill that crossed his desk. He didn't make this statement until compelled to by the clock.

Not entirely true. He vetoed UBCs and was overriden. But he knew he'd be overridden I'm sure

Thank you for the correction. I edited my post above - "almost" every gun control bill...

Hey Pres... that shit ain' gonna float...

Maybe someone should read what St. Clarence of Thomas laid down in those stone tablets.

You’re very perceptive.

Hogan has always said and done what he’s needed to remain popular and electable in a state that skews center-left.

At an event years ago while he was running for re-election, concern was expressed on a gun-related matter and how he could get some more support from the right. His response? “Who else are they gonna vote for?”

He’s a political animal, and a savvy one for the most part at that. His prior actions demonstrate it. From vetoing a few bad gun things, to signing some other bad ones. Is his behavior isolated among politicians? No. Democracy is more about salesmanship than it is earnest leadership and he’s been a good salesman in Maryland.

 

[swinokur]

Yeah but Frosh never issued an opinion. He had a subordinate do it.

He didn’t want to be seen as the loser who capitulated

Kinda like Cornwallis at Yorktown. Send an underling to surrender for you

What an unmanly, cowardly POS

Eff him

I smile every time I see that picture.

 

[swinokur]

If I had been standing I would have turned my back on him.

I detest the POS. Man is only reserved for men. He ain’t one

He’s a sniveling little ball less tyrant.

He couldn’t even admit defeat like a man like his relative Cornwallis

Sic Semper Tyrannis

I hope he’s despondent

Yep

Schadenfreude Doc

I can't help but notice how certain cases go on the slow boat, while others get "rocket docketed". If Hogan pre Bruen had said G&S was illegal; there would have been a rocket docketed case that would have reached the 4th Circuit in weeks.

State cases were at the ready between Mr. Rounds and Mr. Whalen. The dam was being smashed one way or another.

Here's Rounds: https://www.marylandshallissue.org/...d-court-of-special-appeals-unreported-opinion

Yeah but Frosh never issued an opinion. He had a subordinate do it.

And more to the point, the subordinate actually wrapped up his "answering questions" letter by saying that since he's not the actual AG, the letter isn't official and should be relied on as such. Total weasel move.

Frosh is now on the outside as an onlooker as his world collapses around him.

Oh happy day
