In this country, gun bans are not the answer, but neither is loosening restrictions on who can and can’t own guns, which makes a move Thursday by some Ohio House Republicans — and even supported by Gov. Mike DeWine — all the more puzzling. Nearly half of Ohio’s House Republicans are pushing for passage of a new bill that gives all law-abiding Ohians the right to carry a concealed weapon without going through a permit process or training. If this reckless bill becomes law, anyone over 21 — not disqualified by federal law due to a felony conviction or other offense from obtaining a weapon — would be able to legally carry a hidden gun. |

The key phrase is "law abiding citizens". This does not make it legal for criminals to carry without a license.
All it does is eliminate the paperwork and cost of obtaining a license to carry. It does not change who is eligible to carry, it only eliminates the arbitrary requirement to have a license.
This has not been a problem in the other dozen or so states that have enacted constitutional carry. It will not be a problem in Ohio, non-with-standing liberal opposition. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Today the taxing power, rather than chattel slavery, is the instrument by which the parasitical element of the population subsists. And that element, which includes politicians, panics at the slightest reduction in the state's power to plunder. Once you start liberating taxpayers, even a little tiny bit, nobody knows where it may end. —Joseph Sobran |
