On Abortion: I'm pro-life and I'm not going to sign a pro-abortion bill

[On Abortion]: "I'm pro-life and I'm not going to sign a pro-abortion bill, but I'm realistic. I know that the Democrats have the moves to do pretty much what they want. I'm not going to be assisting them. But that's what's going to happen." Source: WUSA on 2024 Maryland Senate race Jul 14, 2022

On Crime: The police should be Officer Friendly with constituents

Well, you know, it's the governor's job to see that people are safe. And we want police that are doing that. The police should be Officer Friendly, treat the constituents as they would their brother or sister. But, of course, if a criminal is going to act violently, we're not going to put up with that. And if you want to act violently--go out into the boxing ring or go and play football. But don't bring a gun with you and try to hold up an innocent person.

On Gun Control: There's a right to have a gun; you have to use it legally

The longtime defense attorney has said he supports the Second Amendment. He's a lifetime member of the National Rifle Association (NRA) and attended the U.S. Military Academy. During a recent interview with the Maryland State Bar Association, Ficker responded to a question about wear and carry permits by saying he looks at bearing arms like the people in Ukraine do. "I think that there's a right to have a gun, and you have to use it legally." Source: FOX5 on 2024 Maryland Senate race Jul 15, 2022
