Maryland “Castle Doctrine” Bill to be Heard Tomorrow

[PresentArms]

Senate Bill 449 is scheduled to be heard by the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee tomorrow, Wednesday, February 20. Introduced by State Senators E. J. Pipkin (R-36) and David Brinkley (R-4), SB449 would restore the right of self-defense in Maryland and eliminate the requirement that a victim retreat from a violent attacker. This “Castle Doctrine” legislation is vital to protecting law-abiding citizens from being criminally prosecuted for protecting themselves or their family.

SB449 is scheduled for a hearing in the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee tomorrow at 1:00 pm in 2 East, Miller Senate Building, Annapolis.

Please contact the members of the committee and respectfully urge them to support this important self-defense legislation that prevents victims from becoming criminals.

Done! Thank you for presenting this for us. This is exactly the kind of pro-active thing we need do. Good job!

I just went to http://mlis.state.md.us/2008rs/billfile/sb0449.htm and found at the bottom of the page "Third Reading, Enrolled", which seems to me to mean that the bill was read and passed by the Senate. If so, congratulations, Maryland, and good luck in the state House and with your governor. Keep up the pressure and let them know what you want. http://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd198/St-Michael/yipee.gifhttp://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd198/St-Michael/happy.gifhttp://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd198/St-Michael/clap.gifhttp://i221.photobucket.com/albums/dd198/St-Michael/dazzler.gif
