    We need to get the Forfeiture law off the books in MD. IT allows cops to seize property based on suspicion and accuse it of a crime. There's no trial, right to face your accuser, etc. They just take it and sell it!

      Yes, it is theft by government scheme. One of the most outrageous violations of our rights, other than the massive spying on everyday Americans.

    It would be nice if he would get rid of the piggy back tax for Wicomico. map

    Larry is beginning to show his colors. I'm starting to think he'd turn Maryland into the first true 'police state' in the nation. He's far, far too proactive toward LE and the justice department.
