We never hear where these thugs get their guns. If you Constitution hating Maryland libs would find and prosecute the people who they get these guns from, there would be fewer of these incidents.
There’s no excuse for releasing this ‘wanna beez’ gangster with out a cash bond. $5,000 should as a minimum. Especially in this case as he obviously is a convicted felon. That alone has a fine of $10,000. He is carrying a gun for a reason and to think otherwise is to be naive. 50% of these criminals obtain the guns illegally. Since liberal Maryland can’t “stop and frisk” like other States, here‘s a sure way to spot ‘wanna beez gangster’, anyone w/tat’s on their neck and you’ve got a criminal out in the area. These low life’s have ruined PG County and Charles is next.
Ccwam No matter what they do they will get in the US just like drugs aslong Biden is dumb if anything it’s gonna get worse watch
Who is the District Court Commissioner releasing these folks? They will, most likely be repeat offenders.
