Maryland: "Castle Doctrine" Legislation to be Heard on Tuesday, March 9
Please Contact Members of the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee!
On Tuesday, March 9, the Maryland Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee will hear two bills seeking to codify the "Castle Doctrine" principle into Maryland state law.
Senate Bill 386, sponsored by State Senator Nancy Jacobs (R-34), would provide civil immunity to a person who uses force, including deadly force, against someone who enters their dwelling or business with the intent to commit first, second or third degree burglary or a crime of violence.
Senate Bill 411, sponsored by State Senator Thomas Middleton (D-28), would provide immunity from damages when force, including deadly force, is reasonable under the circumstances to repel an attack.
Over the years the Chairman of the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee, State Senator Brian Frosh (D-16) has consistently put these bills in his pocket, never to be brought up for a vote.
It is time for Senator Frosh to bring these bills up for a vote! Please contact the members of the Committee and respectfully urge them to support your right to self-defense and to bring these bills up for a vote.

thats what bill 411 does....immunity from damages...
we need these bills more than ever now with increasing home invasions, its only going to get worse as they early release criminals..
Frosh will never let this bill see the light of day. He is a dedicated left wing nut job.
I carry anyway. Forget those idiots and protect yourselves and your family.
With or without these bills I will do my best to kill anyone who enters my home with the intent to harm my family in any way shape or form! I am not firing a warning shot, I am not calling the police, I am shooting for the chest and then the head. I will take the chance of going to prison, but of course I will have a jury trial which will give me an edge to walk free.
why is Frosh still in power? He held sex offender bills as well

You're right, but that means...
Then he has to go!
We must win the States back as well as the Federal Government.
