    Balto gun registry unconstitutional

    Judge says Baltimore gun registry unconstitutional

    Baltimore's gun offender registry is unconstitutional, a Circuit Court judge ruled Friday, calling into question one of the city's signature programs against gun violence.

    Judge Alfred Nance said the Police Department had "failed or refused to comply" with establishing clear regulations for the registry, which required people convicted of gun crimes to provide addresses and other information with the city every six months for a period of three years.

    Edit: after a reread, this really isn't a big deal, it is just one judges opinion and other judges aren't required to abide.
