ANNAPOLIS, MD - Governor Larry Hogan today released the following statement ordering Maryland flags to be lowered to half-staff to honor the victims of the shooting at the offices of the Capital Gazette in Annapolis on June 28:
“With the lowering of the Maryland flag, we honor the dedicated journalists of our hometown newspaper in our state’s capital. To the family, friends, and colleagues at the Capital Gazette and its parent company, the Baltimore Sun, you have the deepest sympathies of a state in mourning,” said Governor Hogan. “There is no amount of clarity that will ever explain or nullify the pain that comes with losing so many lives for so little reason; journalism is a noble profession upon which our democracy depends, and we will fight to defend it.”
The flags are lowered to honor the following Capital Gazette staff members: Gerald Fischman, Robert Hiaasen, John McNamara, Rebecca Smith, and Wendi Winters.
The governor has the power to lower the Maryland flag at his discretion. The flags will remain lowered until sunset on Monday, July 2.

ANTIFA Wicomico are all over social media blaming the whacko shooting on President Trump and white privilege. They are making stupid comments like we are coming to take your guns. Not only that, when they take your guns they will come back and rob you. Are you concerned about home invasions? You better be! That is the main reason these criminals want your guns.
ANTIFA Wicomico includes Jamaad Gould, James Yamakawa, Amber Green, Jake Day, Jake Burdett, Jared Schablein, Earle Hatton, Michele Gregory, Michael Feldman, Josh Hastings, Dan O'Hare and quite a few others. These are the ones that are dangerous because they are trying to take over county politics.
Some of these idiots are running for office and no matter what your party is, Democrat or Republican, you would be foolish to vote for them. Although they are on the ticket as Democrats, they don't identify as Democrats, they identify are Progressives and they are talking about bringing civil war to the streets.
Do not vote for them!!
Gould and Yamakawa are losers as are the rest of the named individuals for sure. The wife of Yamakama married the first male that gave her a a look so she's stuck with the loser who couldn't support himself if his life depended on it. If she were a decent person she would be ashamed of how low she has sunk in life to be stuck married to such a loser but I did read some reviews of her and evidently her breath is enough to gag a maggot so that explains why no real decent man would want her. The children are to be pitied stuck being born to 2 low lifes.
I will Not lower my flag for coomunist journalists.
Classy
