In Wicomico and Somerset Counties, gun rights advocates are taking a stand for what they’re calling their Second Amendment rights. “It allows all of us to come together under the same cause for the 2nd Amendment and hopefully it will send a big message to the law makers that you know don’t step on our gun rights,” Jamie Wink, Founder of Somerset County 2A Sanctuary, said.

“Every year it’s the same thing, they put these bills in and try to get them past and they throw anything in there that they can think of,” Wink said. “I hope that with this movement that law makers get the message and stop the onslaught of the fight against the second amendment.”

Both the Wicomico and Somerset County sheriff's are supportive of the group's efforts.

“I support these business owners one hundred percent and I support their resolution,” Mike Lewis, Wicomico County Sheriff told WMDT. “What I do not support is Annapolis law makers trying to tell these business owners what they should be doing with their weapons.”

Lewis is the Maryland Sheriff who's says he will not enforce any new gun laws in his state and has also warned of a potential Civil War over the gun rights issue.

“In my opinion, Somerset County is already a sanctuary already, I am not going to take a firearm from a law abiding citizen,” Ronnie Howard, Sheriff of Somerset County, said.
