So my friend told me about this article he had to read for one of his Law classes, but he can't find it now. The articles about a blind man who wants a concealed carry permit because he's been attacked several times in Baltimore. I'll try to sumerize what I can remember from what my friend told me, because I really want this article for various reasons.

- a blind man was walking through a bad neighbourhood to his baltimore home

- his cane bumped a mans leg who proceeded to accuse him of being a "disrespectful cracker" and stap and rob him.

- later in a different bad area in Baltimore he's walking with his guide dog and someone shoots and robs him and shoots and kicks his dog leaving the poor dog unable to walk.

- the rest of the article was about his attempt to get a gun permit

- I don't know how much of this is in the article, and how much is my friend misremembering which is why I want the article to find out for myself.

This worries me because Baltimore is supposed to be one of the best cities in America for the blind and visually impaired. I'd like this article to prove to people that criminals do not have some special honour code about the blind. I also want it to convince people that guide dogs aren't for protection.
