O’Malley Is A Typical Liberal

He likes to live off other people’s money…

I don’t know if Democrat presidential candidate (polling at about 1%) Martin O’Malley ever had a real job, you know, in the private sector, but if he did it was a long time ago. Sometime after he lied on his bar application he became a public servant which is liberal code for using the public for their own service.

O’Malley (or O’Moron as I like to call him) has lived off the taxpayer for a long time. That runs in the family as his wife draws a salary off the taxpayer as a judge (and she is following in her daddy’s footsteps of living off the taxpayer).

Liberals love to put their hands in your pockets and spend your money. O’Malley was governor of Maryland and he drove the state farther down the hole of oppression and tyranny. During his tenure he had furniture that cost the taxpayer $62,000 in a part of the Governor’s Mansion.

Interestingly it was declared junk and sold to the O’Malleys for just under $10,000.

Look, it might have been junk though I hardly think that junk would be kept in the Governor’s Mansion. But the family is a bunch of liberals so they have no respect for other people’s stuff which means they might have trashed it completely.

If it was junk it should be sold but there is a catch. There are procedures in place and they were not followed. Someone in the private sector might have wanted to bid on the stuff but there was no notification. It was labeled junk at Mrs. O’Malley’s request (curious is it not?) and then sold to them.

If it was truly junk why would the O’Malley’s want it? He is running for president for goodness sake. Does he really want people to think he buys junk because his huge salary as governor would not allow him to buy new stuff? Perhaps living off the taxpayer all these years allowed him to believe he was entitled.

Liberals are a bunch of people who believe they are entitled to the stuff of other people.

In any event, O’Moron appears to have broken the rules regarding how these things are done.

It will go largely unnoticed by the liberal media.

Funny though. Republican Governor Larry Hogan of Maryland moved his own furniture into the Mansion to make up for what was sold.

I wonder if he will be accused of stealing the furniture when he takes it with him…

Do not vote for O’Moron. He could mess up an anvil with a rubber mallet.

If It’s Brown Flush Him Down

Former Maryland State Police Superintendent Marcus Brown was installed as the acting head of the Pennsylvania State Police and waited to be confirmed by the PA Senate. The vote on Monday was not in his favor and he was not confirmed for the job.

Several Republicans crossed the aisle to support Democrats in their vote to confirm but there were enough Republicans left to vote him down 26-22.

Brown is a liberal anti-gun statist who totally supported Martin O’Moron’s unconstitutional gun laws. Brown was in charge of the MSP and oversaw the background checks and the concealed carry permitting process. He toed the party line on issuing permits so people of Maryland were denied their constitutionally protected right to keep and BEAR arms. During Brown’s tenure there was also a months long backlog in approving firearms purchase applications. Many people were waiting 6 or more months in order to get cleared to pick up the firearms they had purchased.

The law allows them to be delivered if the decision by the MSP is not returned in seven days. Most firearms dealers did not do that because Brown’s MSP made it clear that they should not despite the law.

Brown was in an appointed position paid for by the taxpayer. He was unable to honor his oath and follow the Constitution as he was more interested in keeping his head planted firmly in O’Moron’s rectal cavity.

PA Democrat Governor Tom Wolf was informed by Republicans that he should submit a new nominee but it looks like the approval process in PA is a formality or something so Wolf left Brown in the position of acting boss.

Democrats urged Wolf to resubmit Brown’s name but Wolf has not decided whether he will do that.

Marcus Brown should not be in the police force he should be running the security of a communist nation. His name is more appropriate for the kind of policing seen in those kinds of countries.

Brown shirt…

Hey Marcus, let me put it to you like you did on so many conceal carry permit applications.

Your application has been DENIED.

I guess they could not find good and substantial reason to make you the commissioner.

I know there is a lot of good and substantial reasons not to…

It’s Not For The Children, It’s For The Money…

The state of Maryland changed the start of the school year some time ago so that children went back to school the last week of August. In years past the children started school after Labor Day.

I thought it was foolish to change the date in the first place given that many families like to vacation that week into the holiday weekend.

Looks like some state politicians want to change it back to the way it used to be. Comptroller Peter Franchot had a petition drive to force the issue.

While it would be nice to think this was about accommodating families and their vacation plans or that it was, as liberals love to say, for the children, the reality is the request for change is based on money.

Franchot released an economic impact in 2013 (regarding starting school before the holiday) and determined that moving the start of school until after Labor Day will result in over 74 MILLION dollars of “direct economic activity.”

I have no doubt that the date change would result in an increase in money. People come from other states to vacation at the beaches (the change would not impact them per se) and folks from within the state like to go there. Starting after Labor Day would make it easier for people to plan vacations that include the holiday. The Maryland State Fair happens around that time so not worrying about school for that week would likely result in greater attendance.

I have no dog in this hunt though I never favored changing the date to August in the first place. I do think that decisions about when children go to school should be based on more than how it will help the state financially. What other factors are involved. Surely there were reasons that it was changed in the first place. If there is no good reason to start in August then why did they do it to begin with?

My preference would be to start after Labor Day as it had always been regardless of the financial windfall. It only makes sense to start children the day after the holiday rather than start them a week before only to be off for a holiday.

Regardless how this turns out I am amazed that Franchot actually stated the true purpose. Usually things government does that are designed to raise revenue (red light and speeding cameras) are couched in some feel good story like it makes us safer or it is for the kids…

Will They Get A Slap On The Wrist

A lady was fortunate to win one thousand dollars at the Maryland Live Casino. Unfortunately, two other people noticed her good fortune and followed her to her home that was about an hour away.

When she got out of her car one of the two brandished a handgun and took her purse. The couple was arrested four days later by detectives and they are charged with assault, armed robbery and theft.

Given that they committed a crime with a firearm in Maryland they should expect a stiff penalty and some jail time. But, this is Maryland and even though they broke the law they might get a plea bargain for lesser crimes and end up walking only to commit more crimes in the future.

Maryland is easy on criminals but tough on the law abiding. The man who had the gun is Mark West. He has a lengthy criminal history that includes assault, CDS possession with intent to distribute and violation of both probation and peace orders. I don’t know his specifics but this history would indicate he would not be allowed to legally own a firearm.

In many of his past cases he was not prosecuted (looks like the charges were dropped) and for those he was prosecuted he received little in the way of punishment.

Maryland would rather keep putting criminals on the street and harass law abiding citizens.

In Maryland the law abiding cannot carry a firearm at all openly (it is alleged that one may carry a long gun but that would be unwise) and concealed carry permits only go to special people. Maryland has decided that certain firearms are not allowed in the state and its citizens may not purchase them.

The laws are designed to keep the law abiding from getting or carrying firearms. Self protection is not a valid reason in the state.

It would appear though, West had no trouble getting a firearm and using it in a crime even though he has a criminal history and probably would not be allowed to have one.

The point has been made many times that gun laws only apply to people who obey the law in the first place.

This story proves that point.

Maryland is a nanny state that infringes upon the rights of its citizens.

I hope this trend reverses starting next Wednesday when a new governor is sworn in.

Good Thing Maryland Has Tough Gun Control

I have said it before but it bears repeating, gun laws do not prevent criminals from getting and using guns any more than drug laws keep people from getting and using drugs.

Maryland is a liberal/progressive state that does not believe in the Constitution or freedom. That might have changed a bit with the election of Larry Hogan but his election appears to be more related to the economy and taxes than the gun laws though pro Second Amendment voters were certainly motivated this year.

In any event, the laws were enacted under Martin O’Malley and Anthony Brown and the stated goal was to lower gun related crime. The real goal was to get votes and to restrict people but liberals can never say what they really want to do or they would be rejected outright.

Looks like these laws are working so well that Baltimore, which has long been the gun crime area of the state, has been listed as one of the most violent cities in the world.

Read that again. Baltimore is not simply one of the most violent cities in our country; no it is one of the most violent in the WORLD.

Think about all the violent places in the Middle East and all the places where people are ruled by tyrannical governments and Baltimore ranks right up there with them (and probably ahead of some of them).

The Second Amendment, despite what liberals claim, is there to protect a preexisting God given right for free people to keep and bear arms. The primary purpose is to ensure people are armed and able to resist a tyrannical government and that is why liberals want so badly to take that right away.

They know they are tyrants and they know they can never rule over people completely until those people have been stripped of their right to resist.

Martin O’Malley and Anthony Brown are two such tyrants and they pushed their gun bill through in order to further restrict people and to tighten their grip on the collective throats of the citizens of Maryland.

Fortunately, Brown lost his bid to become the governor but that is only a small part of the problem. Annapolis is full of liberal/progressives who want nothing more than to force their will upon the people.

Gun control does not work with regard to its stated purpose and it will not work with regard to the unstated purpose of removing the means to resist.

At least so long as patriots are willing to stand up to the tyranny.
