The Baltimore Sun on The Second Amendment

Tails of the Gun The attack on Maryland's gun laws Our view: A federal judge finds the state's limit on handgun permits unconstitutional in a win for the NRA crowd but a potential loss for public safety (Baltimore Sun)

“ Enjoy. Things get ugly after this. Maryland's restrictions on carrying a handgun outside the home have been among the strongest in the nation — and for good reason, given the death and destruction perpetrated by those possessing handguns in this state. So it is regrettable that the standard is now under threat because a federal judge, emboldened by a pair of recent Supreme Court decisions that have expanded the reach of the Second Amendment, has found a portion of the law unconstitutional. [Full Hilarity] Imagine that.  The Judge was "emboldened by a pair of recent Supreme Court decisions ..."   I'll forgo indulging in the verbal fun fest that argument invites; hell, begs for.  We live with it daily.  These are nice people, but you don't argue with wind-up dolls. The Sun then grants a reader his  own online page.for this killer argument. “ It is depressing that supporters of Second Amendment rights seldom if ever mention the frequent tragedies, such as the recent killing of the 13-year old girl in Baltimore. Because they do not mention them, one is left to assume they regard them simply as inevitable collateral damage not worthy of mention in discussions of gun control. ” How do you argue with that?  ”
