http://news.yahoo.com/maryland-senate-passes-gun-control-bill-204639781.htmlBeretta needs to move out asap WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Maryland Senate approved a comprehensive gun control bill on Thursday that includes a ban on assault weapons and fingerprinting for prospective handgun buyers. The Democratic-controlled Senate passed the bill 28-19 and sent it on to the House of Delegates, according to the chamber's website. Democratic Governor Martin O'Malley proposed the measure in the wake of the Newtown, Connecticut, school massacre in December in which 20 children and six adults died. The rampage reignited a national debate on gun control. The bill has a licensing requirement for handgun buyers to submit fingerprints to state police. Gun buyers also have to complete an eight-hour safety training course and undergo a more rigorous background check before purchasing a weapon. The measure bars anyone who has been involuntarily committed due to mental illness from possessing a firearm. It also bans assault weapons and limits magazine sizes.

Idiots don't begin to describe this place. I'm in B-more right now and cannot wait to hop a plane back to the relative sanity that is Texas.

Brother, you need OUTTA THERE asap. I'd laugh if that wasn't so true. Sitting here waiting on a couple of trades to get done so I can do an air balance and certify this clean room, spend one more night in the cesspool, then hop a bird back home tomorrow.
