Barry Donadio gave remarks on the 2nd Amendment on June 26th to Republican constituents in Salisbury, Maryland. The Wicomico County Republican Club of Maryland hosted his appearance and discussion on the 2nd Amendment. The event was held at the Salisbury Chamber of Commerce located at 144 East Main Street in Salisbury, Maryland.

Donadio said "Our Second Amendment rights are an individual right and not for only those serving in the military." During his talk, Donadio expressed his belief that the Second Amendment is a women's rights issue. He said "Every female U.S. Citizen over the age of 18 and without a serious criminal history should have the unrestricted right to carry a concealed handgun on their person for self defense." Donadio also cited the findings of the Supreme Court ruling "District of Columbia v. Heller", which supports limiting infringements to the Second Amendment.

Donadio told constituents to never give up protecting the rights of the Second Amendment as it is an amendment that safeguards our liberties. Donadio advised the group to legally and safely exercise Second Amendment rights as the U.S. Constitution grants us to.

The presentation was very well received by what appeared to be a Pro-Second Amendment audience. In attendance, were the President of the Wicomico County Republican Club Shawn Bradley, Maryland State Delegate Johnny Mautz, Wicomico Republican Central Committeewoman Julie Brewington, Maryland State Senator Addie Eckardt, Maryland State Circuit Court Judge Matthew A. Maciarello and the first female Police Chief of Salisbury, Barbara Duncan.

Mr. Donadio said; " I appreciate the hospitality of the Wicomico Republican Club President Shawn Bradley."

Barry Donadio led an honorable career in the Volunteer Ambulance Service, Volunteer Fire Department, the Military, Law Enforcement, and the United States Secret Service. He was assigned to the White House during the Bush and Obama Administrations. He also served in multiple Middle Eastern war zones during his career.

4064240610?profile=originalPublic Security LLC advises the public not to be deceived into believing that security cameras make you safe.
If you search youtube, you can find countless murders, sexual assaults, robberies and abductions all taking place in the face of a security camera. The cameras did a great job documenting the attacks, but didn't stop the attacks. Criminals know to simply wear a mask and it is business as usual. 
 
Current public opinion is that once a security camera is installed, they don't have to worry about crime. Security cameras are an excellent supplement and tool. It should be part of your security plan. It should never be your entire security plan and only tool that you are depending on. 
 
There are security cameras at the White House and other high risk locations.  Without an armed protective force protecting those locations, would those cameras stop anyone? The simple answer is "No". It is the same for your venue or event. 
 
Clients need armed private security officers to respond to threats against the public. Security Officers take the focus off innocent victims and draw the attention of criminals to them. This allows innocents to flee during an active shooter scenario that we are seeing so often these days nationwide.
 
Chances are, once you have armed Security Officers on your site, criminals will choose a softer target, one without armed security.
