<h1 class="has-text-align-center wp-block-heading"> ;Attention anti-gun nuts: what about machetes?</h1>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">With all the hysteria from gun-grabbing liberals across America about their desire to suspend the Constitutional rights of law-abiding gun owners, we have to wonder when they will add to their idiotic refrain about guns by restricting ownership of machetes, kitchen knives, and axes. ; In many news reports, there are incidents involving these weapons, which are readily available to mental cases ready, willing, and able to inflict injury and death…this report includes two such cases.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">From St. Mary’s Sheriff Tim Cameron is this wrap-up of Christmas Day and the following few days of mayhem from the alleged heathens of the Mother County of Maryland:</p>

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">THOMPSON’S CORNER, MD. – It’s hard to get by on St. Mary’s Sheriff’s Deputy Joe Lee Somerville Jr., as he has been on the job for a long time. Sheriff Tim Cameron reports that Dep. Somerville smoked out a couple of polecats from PG County who were cleaning out a farm of various implements. Others in the area who have been victims of similar crimes should call the Sheriff’s Department.</p>



<p class="wp-block-paragraph">Police say that on December 25, 2014, Corporal J. Somerville responded to the Clover Hill Dairy located on Woodburn Hill Road in Mechanicsville for a theft in progress.

<p class="wp-block-paragraph">CLEMENTS, MD. – Perhaps the alleged suspect, in this case, had watched one too many showings of Home Alone, Home Alone 2, or Home Alone 3 prior to having an unwanted visitor to his property. It sounds like he was within his rights to order the “victim” off his property, but the assault with the gun took things to a different level. ; Police report that on December 26, 2014, Deputy McCuen responded to a residence in the 28000 block of Point Lookout Road for a reported assault.

When the victim opened the car door Phares stuck the gun into the victim’s side and told him to leave the property. Phares then pointed the gun away from the victim and toward the ground before firing off a round. Phares was placed under arrest and transported to the St. Mary’s County Detention Center. He was charged with 1<sup>st</sup> Degree Assault, 2<sup>nd</sup> Degree Assault, and Reckless Endangerment.</p>
