Lawrence, I grew up on the Eastern Shore and knew most of the changes listed. The list is long and depressing to me. I still own land there but will never live there again. I much prefer a “Shall Issue” state carry attitude to Maryland’s don’t even think about it.

Worse to me is Maryland use to have eight congressmen evenly split between both parties and last time I checked had one remaining Republican congressman which they were trying to get rid of by drawing up a new district map with almost no chance for his reelection. High tax, lots of government meddling, too many laws, regulations and permits for me. They tried to prevent me from cutting 60% of my timber a few years ago. Today I suspect they would be more successful. Great to own land which you can only pay taxes on. And don’t get me started on the DNR over reach, or their decision to introduce unwanted turkeys onto my land. I hate turkeys almost as much as most farmers hate deer. A pestilence.
