#1 This seems like more of a case of police harassment to me. Some busybody reports a person carrying a gun. The cops show up to investigate, find no gun, but use the excuse to poke through his stuff at which point they find the weed. If survival knives are illegal then you shouldn't be able to buy them at Wal-Mart. And the hammer? You have got to be kidding me. This is just another story in a growing trend. People calling the cops when they notice someone with a gun. What are the carry laws in Maryland? Are they that backward that guns must be completely concealed at all times? I see no crime here to warrant the search that found the "illegal" marijuana.

#3 This seems like more of a case of police ~~harassment~~ work to me.

That's better. Read the article. He was released to his parents. That's not going to budge most people's harassment meter.

#4 Police said he was charged with carrying a concealed deadly weapon, carrying a concealed deadly instrument

It sounds like a massive overreaction for carrying a boyscout knife to me.
