Barry Donadio, Former Secret Service, Warns Against Maryland’s HB 1302 “Red Flag Bill”

Barry Donadio

A former member of the U.S. Secret Service that protected President Bush and Obama at the White House is warning against Maryland’s HB 1302 “Red Flag” bill.

Barry Donadio is a former member of the U.S Secret Service, that is a current Candidate for Queen Anne’s County Commissioner in Maryland. He is pro second amendment and an advocate for gun owner rights.

He is opposed to a new law that would potentially rip guns from Marylander’s based on a very low threshhold of evidence. Actually, the preponderance of evidence to be exact.

That means only 1% more evidence than the opposing side. Just like small claims court. You won’t get your guns taken from you on a beyond a reasonable doubt ruling.

Under HB 1302, it appears that all anyone has to do is testify or potentially lie to the court and then, based on the testimony or potential lie, the court will issue an interim order.

Then you will be required to surrender ALL of your firearms immediately to local Police.

The order may temporarily strip you of your guns, potentially destroy your character, potentialy prevent you from obtaining a pistol permit and almost certainly flag you when you are having an employment background conducted. It will most likey also show up on a search of your name on the Maryland Case File Judiciary Lookup website. All can be based on a fraudulent accusation.

Donadio was quoted and cited the following concerns:

“In my opinion, HB 1302 undermines the U.S. Constitution by denying two constitutional rights, due process and the right to bear arms”

“HB 1302 is potentially the new way to destroy someone’s credibility and assassinate their character as well as their good standing in the community with a false claim. “

“HB 1302 is a sanctioned disarming of the population, one by one with the lowest standard of proof required to do the dirty deed.”

“HB 1302 gives birth to the potential of a new modern day Salem Witch Hunt, reincarnated in the womb by the anti-gun movement”

“I highly doubt HB 1302 will ever stop any gun violence just like the 100+ other gun laws in effect that didn’t stop any gun violence.”

“I find it more probable that this HB1302 will potentially destroy the lives of law abiding gun owners and violate their constitutional rights when false accusations are made”

“ HB 1302 gives another victory to the criminal element, America’s enemies and liberal extremists everywhere.”

“Not On My Watch” Says Donadio To Queen Anne’s County Becoming Sanctuary County

Barry Donadio Candidate for Queen Anne's County Commissioner in Maryland

On April 3rd 2018, Barry Donadio stated that he would not support any actions to make Queen Anne’s County, Maryland a sanctuary county for illegal immigrants.

Barry Donadio is a Candidate for Commissioner of Queen Anne’s County Maryland that strongly opposes sactuary cities in the United States.

Donadio said that he wanted to set the record strait on where he stands against sanctuary cities.

“Queen Anne’s County will not become a sactuary county on my watch”, said Donadio.

Donadio said that there aren't any sactuary cities for Americans in other countries and he questions why there would be sactuary cities in the United States for illegal aliens to seek refuge.

Donadio said he would vote against any move towards a sanctuary status that crosses his desk.

“I do believe that there should be a path for those seeking citizenship such as military service or academic service to the United States. “ Donadio commented.

Donadio had an extensive law enforcement career that included the United States Secret Service. He is a supporter of immigration enforcement in Queen Anne’s County.

Donadio Says "No Way" To SB344, Non U.S. Citizens To Police Americans

Barry Donadio, Republican

Barry Donadio, a Maryland Republican Politician is opposed to Maryland Senate Bill 344. It gives the ability for Permanent Resident Foreign Nationals with no U.S. Citizenship to become Police Officers in Maryland. 

“ I am stongly opposed to a law that will give the ability for a non-U.S. Citizen to become a Law Enforcement Officer and have the authority to arrest U.S. Citizens.” said Donadio. 

Maryland’s Senate Bill 344 seems to do just that. After serving 4 years in the U.S. Military, the bill will permit the Maryland Police Training and Stadards Commission to potientally ceritify them as Police Officers. 

Donadio stated that he asked numerous active Maryland Police Officers their opinions about the bill and every Officer was against it. 

“It is a bad idea” Donadio implied. ” I am not comfortable with a non-U.S. citizen having the authority of arresting any American citizen.” “ Dump this bill.”

“ I question if SB344 is even constitutionally sound and which Americans whould benefit from it. ” 

Donadio’s stance is that the bill will only work to undermine the trust between the civilian populace and law enforcement. The bill will mostly lead to a hiring preference for those who are non-citizens over Americans that are applying for Police Officer positions. Donadio also questions if a permanent resident will practice the same discretion as our current Police Officers that are U.S. citizens. It may also turn policing into services offered by the lowest bidder. In theory, the bill legally sets the stage to potentially have an all non-U.S. citizen police department. 

Donadio does endorse and appreciate those permanent residents that are serving in our armed forces. He believes this is a path to citizenship and an act he respects on the part of those seeking citizenship. “But they are not arresting Americans in this capacity.” Donadio said. That is why he is against making them a Police Officer prior to obtaining U.S. citizenship. 

Donadio received some resistance on his stance aganst SB344. Some citing that non-U.S. citizens serve in the Fire Departments in Maryland. Donadio’s stance is that he has no issue with them serving in that capacity becasue they are not placing Americans under arrest. 

Donadio is encouring Police fraternal orginazations and concerned citizens to speak out against this bill immediatly.
