Ohio: Governor Kasich Vetoes Self-Defense Legislation

[saltydog]

He was one of the 46 idiot Republican politicians that voted for the 1994 Federal Assault Weapon ban which only passed by maybe 5 votes.

Ohio: Legislature Overrides Governor Kasich’s Veto of Self-Defense Legislation
Thursday, December 27, 2018

Today, the Ohio House of Representatives and Senate voted 67-22 and 21-11, respectively, to override Governor John Kasich’s veto of self-defense legislation, Sub. House Bill 228. Substitute House Bill 228 will now be enacted into law.

Some of the important provisions in Sub. House Bill 228 are:

*Placing the burden of disproving a self-defense claim on the prosecution, similar to how it is in every other state in the country

*Critical expansion of preemption to ensure that localities do not create a patchwork of gun laws throughout Ohio

*Language updates to mirror federal law that affects certain types of firearms, such as the Mossberg Shockwave

*Clarifies Ohio’s signage law in regards to concealed carry. These important changes simplify what has become a complicated portion of Ohio law

Thank you to NRA Members and Second Amendment supporters who continued to contact their lawmakers in support of this important legislation. Also, special thanks to those legislators who voted in favor of Sub. HB 228 and again to override the Governor’s veto.

Glad to hear they did the right thing!

Good news from my home state. I still remember when they (finally) passed concealed carry, and then "encouraging" them to recognize Oklahoma's permit under their reciprocity statute.

Born, but not raised. Raised in Oklahoma, a few years in Maryland, back to Ohio for several, then moved down here in 1999 at 18.

And I believe it's spelled "damnyankee."

I jest, as its an old story that a person coming to the south is on vacation. If they come to the south with their carpet bag, they are a damned yankee here to stay!
LOL.
Just a little humor.

Oh, I came to stay. But I packed in a duffel bag, not a carpet bag; give me a little credit, eh?
