In what appears to be a "me too" reaction to the Bruen decision, the Charles County Commissioners will hear testimony on a bill to ban the possession of weapons and firearms within 100 yards of certain government buildings, leased properties, etc.
There is NO exemption for persons who hold valid carry permits, or persons simply driving past these locations. Nor is there an exemption for persons who live within 100 yards of these locations.
2A Maryland has submitted a Public Information Act (PIA) request for a list of all locations which will be impacted by this proposed legislation.
