More of the same. Liberals write unconstitutional gun laws and then disregard both the Constitution AND their own laws by confiscating guns from ANYONE for ANY REASON!!
It sickens me that it happens, but sickens me even more to hear people say "Well then, I'll just move to a more gun-friendly state".
This is how the antis work - state by state, chasing "us" around until 20-30 years from now, Alabama will have the same laws as Californistan, Peoples Republic of Maryland, and Washington D.C. ("[b]D[/b]oes [b]C[/b]onfiscate"). [pissed]
The same article refers to the other Maryland case of Larry Dicken (posted in an early thread here). This reveals more of the devious tactics of the gun-grabbers:
[i]Mr. Dicken passed background checks and purchased several handguns before Aug. 24, when [b]state police called saying they needed to visit to "verify serial numbers" of his guns before they approved his pending purchase[/b].
Two troopers arrived at Mr. Dicken's house in an unmarked car, [b]Mr. Dicken presented the guns, and the troopers told him they had been ordered to seize [u]all[/u] his firearms.[/b][/i]
Yeah, I REALLY trust police now. At what point do the "good" cops become Stormtrooper-JBTs who are "just following orders"?
Another glaring statement at the end of the article:
[i]"Cases like this demonstrate the [b]huge gulf between the intentions and realities of gun control[/b]," said James Purtilo, publisher of Tripwire, the Beltsville-based gun rights newsletter."[/i]
What is that guy smoking? There's no gulf between intentions and realities here. Total confiscation [b]IS[/b] the intention of gun-control advocates. DUH!!
