The vast majority of citizens in Maryland are denied the right of reasonable self-defense outside of their "boni fide" residence. If most Marylanders cannot lawfully possess a firearm for self-defense outside of their residence, how can this kind of thing still happen?!Oh, that's right, Maryland gun laws only disarm law-abiding citizens while the criminals (by definition of the word criminal) have no care nor respect for the gun laws...or any laws for that matter.

Would this incident have ended differently if these folks were afforded the means to protect themselves? As in many recent cases of violence against unarmed (read: “lawfully” disarmed) citizens, we will never know.

This shit makes me sick
