First of all, hunters are already in a shotgun only zone. I don't even think you are allowed to use a rifle to hunt in Maryland. I don't think too many people will be too keen on walking around suburban Maryland with long guns for quite some time. If they do, they have a need to see Darwin.

I am sure the sniper feels a whole lot safer now! How's this for a catch 22....You have a pistol in your posession, you see the sniper and dispatch him without hesitation, only to face a 20 year conviction for violating the governors order and carrying a concealed weapon without a permit. It would happen you know.

What about banning bows and arrows? Is the governor feeling ok? He might need some quiet time.

In order to stop this terrorism, it would be useful
to have a 30-30 handy as you go about doing your
everyday business so that if you should encounter
these terrorists, you could do something about it!
Is it illegal to carry a rifle in these counties?
