  2. Thank you for supporting this. I testified in support. I attended a Maryland private school with a huge predator problem. Now, 30+ years later, an alumni from my school dies about every 18 months from suicide, alcoholism, drug addiction, or drunk driving. Our classes were as small as 14 students, so this is a huge, ongoing loss. If this bill or a bill like it does not pass, this could be your child in 10, 20, 30 years. Being abused and being around abuse is a pretty reliable way to turn out addicts and suicides. This will help name predators in courts, which can get them away from children.

  3. Maryland lawmakers strike again
    Banishing forever the state song
    They voted by absolute majority
    Asserting that it doesn't belong.

  4. The morally corrupt legislature
    Perpetuates the legal loopholes
    Placing protocol over principle
    While grooming for loftier roles.
