"State senators weigh domestic violence vs. right to guns...
"One bill would give judges the discretion to confiscate guns from the subjects of temporary protective orders ... The other bill would require judges to take guns after a final protective order is granted."

The Court of Special Appeals ruled that prison inmates have the right to refuse dialysis.
I've got to wonder, why the hell did the state even try to fight this in court? The guy wants to save taxpayer dollars by refusing medical treatment, that's the sort of thing we should be encouraging!
I would say it's definitely the news void when you don't hear anything. I want to put together a team of local citizen journalists to significantly increase the focus and intensity of REAL WORLD, "utra local" coverage of the news.
Sites like yours are a tremendous asset to citizens of Baltimore.
