    At what point do we come to the realization that our rights have been infringed?

    If our rights were a cake, how many pieces would have to be sliced out of it before we realize it's not a whole cake anymore? Do we have to wait till it's completely gone?

    up until now things were looking up. We had a decent shot at Shall Issue via the courts. MD's 20 round mag limit was silly but that could be addressed later.

    But now, if SB 281 is passed we will be at the point where something needs to be done.

    Shall issue has not been lost. The US Circuit could care less about MD law, they care about upholding the Constitution of the United States.

    agreed, my point was that we were advancing, now, not so much. Yes we may get shall issue CCW but we will lose many of the firearms we often purchase, be fingerprinted like criminals and be forced to be LICENSED TO EXERCISE OUR RIGHTS.

    I reposted this on Facebook. Its legitimacy is being called into question. Does anyone know if there is any substantiation to the claim that he said this?

    "A free people ought to be armed."
    - George Washington

    "A free people ought not only to be armed and disciplined, but they should have sufficient arms and ammunition to maintain a status of independence from any who might attempt to abuse them, which would include their own government."
    - George Washington

    "Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety."
    - Benjamin Franklin

    "No free man shall ever be debarred the use of arms."
    - Thomas Jefferson

    "I prefer dangerous freedom over peaceful slavery."
    - Thomas Jefferson

    I completely understand that the founding fathers made comments like the one in the graphic. I was looking for some other source that attributed that exact quote to George Washington.
