Oh Nine On Line for July 6...Ahh Life Is A Parade

The July Fourth Parade was entertaining and perhaps even telling from a political point of view and I made sure my son and I and our two bicycles got a good view but first--how did you enjoy having a car-free downtown? We need to do it more often.

BUT FIRST....how about that enormous Chinese marching band! Was that cool or what? It kept going on...and on...it seemed as if half the population of China participated. Their web-site says, "Falun Dafa (also called Falun Gong, or just Dafa) is a high-level cultivation practice guided by the characteristics of the universe—Truthfulness, Benevolence, and Forbearance." Sounds good to me, but what is their take on cholesterol?

And now for the political end.

Maryland Pro-Gun Bill to be Heard in Committee


The House Judiciary Committee is scheduled to hear House Bill 359 on Thursday, February 19 at 1:00 p.m.

HB359, introduced by State Delegates Tony McConkey (R-33A), Jill Carter (D-41), Benjamin Kramer (D-19), Susan McComas (R-35B), and Kriselda Valderrama (D-26), would allow an eligible citizen who has had a temporary or final protective order issued on their behalf to be issued a concealed handgun permit by the Secretary of State Police.

This is a step in the right direction toward ensuring that all law-abiding Marylanders can exercise the Right-to-Carry for self-defense.
