Bad news for the gun grabbers...

Even worse news if this turns out to be foreign terrorism.

The irony is that some of these people will still say they are for stricter gun laws.

applications for concealed-weapons permits, and gun sales are up nearly as much.

In reality, it would be more effective to invest in kevlar accessories.

Maryland Refused To Help FBI in Criminal Background Gun Checks

They refuse to help the system in place, but have been stomping for a new system of ballistic fingerprinting to be implemented across the country.

Great to hear that people are stepping up to the plate and taking care of their personal safety. This will make the streets safer for all of us.

"It's been crazy," said Barbara Brinklow, deputy clerk of the Spotsylvania circuit court.

Quite the contrary. It's a perfectly sane response.

****"The sheriff already had 41 applications on his desk last Friday from the past few weeks," said Brinklow in Spotsylvania County. "We got 48 applications in the last three days."

The owner of Damage Inc., a gun shop in Stafford County, said gun sales at his store have increased 300 percent since the sniper's rampage began.******

Sherrif? You have to be approved to carry a concealed weapon in virginia or maryland? or is this just to make sure you pass the instant check?

...officials report up to a 500 percent increase in applications for concealed-weapons permits.

So long as Americans can be convinced that they need to apply for a privilege to exercise a right they can expect to be denied their rights.

Compare how Virginia citiznes are responding to the sniper attacks versus how Maryland's LEOs are responding...

A Montgomery County Police spokesperson is telling us to run in a zig zag pattern when out in open areas, crouch down when pumping gas, and hide.

Maryland's biggest problem is that it has been ruled by liberal socialist DemocRATS for many years, and they have also imported more than its share of gun grabbing lefties from New England to "stuff the ballot boxes" to assure their continued rule.

Free State... HA!
