Just a heads up on the way Maryland is controlling its "Citizens".

[martian_22]

"Citizen" is starting to sound more and more like a not-yet-convicted criminal. Once everyone is criminalized(potential hate-criminals), guns will no longer be an issue.

This article makes me sick. At least here we are REFUSING to register. But those who do not already own a gun must buy one on the black market. Oh well, either way they consider us criminals if we wish to protect ourselves, and NOT BE RULED!! What is so awful here is that this fellow has defended your Country (and mine), had a little bar scuffle which was likely justified, and now this. It is terrible. Is that the repulik of Maryland??

"Trust me. In a lot of these cases, I'm sympathetic, but I'm governed by the law," said Maj. Thomas Bowers, chief of detectives for Maryland State Police.

Then maybe "the law" is the problem.

My advice to Donald G. Arnold, go west young man go west. If they won't trust you, don't give them your taxes. Move.

They wont even allow a historically accurate portrait of a black freedom fighter be displayed in Baltimore!

On a side note, other postings of this same article:

Citizen of the Year Denied OK to Carry Gun

[TigersEye]

Donald G. Arnold is a Vietnam veteran and president of his neighborhood association. He was named a "citizen of the year" by Maryland in 2000 for his work with police in southeast Baltimore to stop drug dealers and make the city safer.

None of that mattered, however, when Mr. Arnold tried to renew his permit to carry a gun that he needed in his work as a private detective and security guard.

Can it be any clearer that the disarmament agenda is not about public safety?

Mr. Dicken passed background checks and purchased several handguns before Aug. 24, when state police called saying they needed to visit to verify serial numbers of his guns before they approved his pending purchase. Two troopers arrived at Mr. Dicken's house in an unmarked car, Mr. Dicken presented the guns, and the troopers told him they had been ordered to seize all his firearms.

This really ticks me off reading this story. I would rather die than have my guns confiscated.

[Euro-American Scum]

One gun owner had a 1983 conviction come back to haunt him. Maryland State Police seized firearms from Larry L. Dicken's home outside Cumberland in August, even taking with them his hunting rifle.

And before they're done out here in California, they'll be seizing guns if you have so much as a parking ticket. All except those beloning to Diane Feinstein, of course.
