- At Wednesday's Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee hearing on state police espionage activities against Maryland citizens, at least two state senators volunteered that they were arrested in their youth for civil disobedience. I liked how they brought that up to the crowd, sort of like it was a badge of honor. I like the fact that our lawmakers had brushes with the other side of the law (I did not say "wrong side") in their salad days. I would hope it gives them a healthy sense of respect for today's activists. Their activism probably spurred them on in their quest for political office--sort of like if you can't lick them, join them....But I digress....
