They're still there

The Columbians can "be it resolved" all they want, but pre-emption likely prevents county restrictions on state-wide permits.
Why can't the anti-2A people understand the most basic concept...that a criminal simply doesn't care about laws. That's why they are criminals.
Hmmm... Preemptive strike against shall-issue permits?
I just spoke with Councilman Calvin Ball's admin and told her that unless metal detectors and armed guards are a requirement of this proposed legislation then this is just more FEEL GOOD legislation that they can send out an email blast for.

All right, let's see a good turnout for tonight folks. I don't even live in Howard county and I'm showing up to be counted and to fly the flag.
And remember, it's always great to meet your fellow MDS members in person… So there's a nice social aspect to it. (One of the highlights of my week was meeting RoadDawg in person for the first time at Timonium. He's a great dude, which always seems to be the case when I meet online folks in person.)
I look forward to seeing everybody there who can make it.
Great to see Marte616, T-ball, and Pbharvey. Great to see that our testimony picked out different parts of their stupid plan to focus on.
I was last and I decided to challenge the county council to rethink their plan to exclude CCW permit holders as "being just like at the Statehouse". The Statehouse has TSA-style security and that is a totally different security environment. With the exception of the lone Republican on the board, they did not address A TOTALLY UNSECURED ENVIRONMENT WITH CCW HOLDERS EXCLUDED. Just dumb.
For good measure I raised the Lone Wolf (ISIS) issue with pubic gatherings in enclosed spaces--hmmmm, like maybe County Council chamber?
On a side note: The county Republican Chairwoman testifying was rapped on the shoulder by an ANTI wielding a rolled up paper, muttering about shooters and guns as the Chairwoman made her way back to her seat. After the meeting she read him the riot act. It's just insane that ANTI's who only want to to testify about the "feelings" would do something so emotionally (and legally) inappropriate. I wish she could have gotten him charged with an assault. It would have been quite a headline.
They're just nuts but the only hope appears to be to outbreed them? What? Oh yeah...I forgot...
