An effort is under way to repeal a Jim Crow-era law that makes it illegal in Maryland to receive any kind of payment, including bus fare, for participating in a protest against racial discrimination.
The law was aimed at discouraging Freedom Riders from traveling to the state to agitate against segregation and racism during the height of the civil rights movement in the 1960s.

Paul Foer at Annapolis Capital Punishment:
We are friends with local Chabad Rabbi Nochum Light and his wife Hindi and because Rabbi Light was a schoolmate and friend of the murdered Rabbi Holzberg and his wife,the horror there has a connection to our lives here. Not only that, but because Jews were specifically targeted among the hundreds randomly murdered, Jews everywhere, including in Annapolis of course, feel an uncomfortable connection with this most recent act of terrorism. Whatever was the motive of the perpetrators of this violence, and whatever there reasons were for looking for Americans and British, we must never forget that when the antidemocratic, anti-Western, anti-secular terrorists go on a rampage, they specifically target Jews–not just Israelis, but Jews of any nationality. And that is when many of us ask, could it happen here?
