    Have I mentioned lately how much I dislike Maryland and New Jersey?

    Seriously. I have been known, on occasion, to play this little card game known as "poker" . Now, since Atlantic City is much closer than Vegas or Tunica, it is really my only option for casino poker. The bad part is, of course, I have to leave my CCW at home here in Va, because the lovely states of Maryland and New Jersey don't trust me to carry a handgun. I drove up yesterday and played for sometime at the Borgata, and the entire time I felt like I was missing something, which I was. I have learned to really dislike that feeling.

    Hopefully our brothers in West Virginia will get table games to pass at Charles Town this year and I can spend 1 hour driving to a CCW friendly state rather than 3 hours through states that suck.

    Just wanted to rant. Thanks

    Unless my job requires it and I cannot find another pilot to fill in, I just don't go places where I cannot carry. As simple as that.

    I'm going to say most of the in that state don't care and aimlessly go about their lives pretending nothing will happen to them.

    I moved from the Peoples Republik of Maryland to Florida and felt like I had been reborn! Now I am finally living in America.

    Even when I was in the military station there to get a hand gun was almoust impossible!!

    I have to go to the Republic of Illinois quite often because of family, but I make sure I don't spend a dime in that big pasture of sheep.

    When I was living in Massachusetts I asked the police chief in the town where I was living what I had to do to get a permit for a pistol. Not even asking about concealed carry, but just possession in my home for protection. His response, "You can't get one". Glad I live in Florida now. got my permit 3 years ago and carry most of the time.
