Constitutional Carry is acknowledged in 40 other States. Only in Maryland does abiding by the Constitution make you a criminal.

Yes LEGALLY moron...

So why doesn't Marylanders demand that their legislators make it legal to conceal carry? Legislators only care about getting reelected so if enough people demand CC, they will surely allow it. Even a lot of Democrats would like to CC so they are the ones that really need to contact the elected officials, including the Gov.

MD will never have CCW like other states. Stop wasting your time and energy complaining about it. If you want to carry, move to a gun friendly red state, we did.

Mr. Norwood currently lives in Cambria Heights NY, not Georgia.
