State lawmakers may approve a “stand your ground” bill this week, which would eliminate gun owners’ duty to retreat from danger in public places before using deadly force in self-defense. Dayton Mayor Nan Whaley, Dayton Police Chief Richard Biehl and others urged Gov. Mike DeWine to veto the measure if it reaches his desk. Biehl said the measure would make police work more difficult and communities less safe by “encouraging armed vigilantism.” |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
