Default RE: Maryland Bill SB379- Right to keep and bear arms

Text is now up. This could get interesting.

This bill will add a new Article 48 to the Maryland Constitution giving the citizens the right to keep and bear arms for the following reasons: Protection of Self, Family and Home. It will also make it clear that we will have the right to carry arms for hunting and recreational use.

Currently only Art.28 deals with firearms and it reads:
"That a well regulated Militia is the proper and natural defence of a free Government"

My post above is the link to the bill and here's a link to current Md's Constitution
