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 |
For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
