Gun safety advocates gathered at the Ohio Statehouse on Wednesday to push back against a slate of proposed gun bills they say would weaken public safety.
Members of Moms Demand Action and Students Demand Action met at Trinity Episcopal Church and spoke with lawmakers about four pieces of legislation: House Bill 495, known as the Freedom to Carry Act; House Bill 108, the Self-Defense Protection Act; House Bill 382, the Second Amendment Protection Act; and Senate Bill 278, which would allow people to sue cities and towns over local gun-control measures. |

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
