National Reciprocity Bill Makes its Way to Congress

Indeed. As Hillary lost, this is our likely future.
Ding, dong, the witch is dead.

 

For now federal and state gun restrictions are legal and this will likely continue

 

That's very true, just that sometimes people use guns to kill others.

 

No. Population is not the issue, just stating the facts.

 

The human species has a very long history of coming up with creative methods of killing themselves and others, violently and otherwise. The history is so well established, one could reasonably argue that it is an aspect of their very DNA, no different than hair color or eye color. Humans kill each other because they believe that they are correct in their reasoning for ending the life of another, even when they are not. Simply trying to restrict the implement of choice will do nothing to change these facts.

 

How would that do anything?

 

Guns are not self explanatory

 

All new guns come with safety instructions.

 

So do new cars....but you still have to get a license (blah blah blah second amendment)

 

Many also come with a trigger lock.

 

You don't need a license to drive a car. Only to drive a car on public roads.

 

Right,,, to check if one has a round chambered you can either pull the trigger or look down the barrel, simple, eh?

 

Ohy my god. You were better when telling stories of the "old" country. LOL

 

To get your CCW in Ohio, you must take a course that includes 6-8 hours of classroom work and 2 hours of range time.

People do fail the course from time to time and have to retake it.

 

It was my understanding Ohio was a constitutional open carry state before becoming a 'Shall issue state' and that there was growing support to go completely constitutional carry; is that true or am I thinking of another state?

 

You are correct. No permit for legal open carry in OH.
Constitutional concealed carry and stand your ground are both in the works.

 

Correct. Just keep in mind that at the moment, Ohio recognizes open carry and concealed carry as two distinct and different legal statuses.

Open carry does not apply to your car. You must have the gun unloaded and I believe the ammunition in a different compartment than the gun itself.

Concealed carry allows you to transport any way you wish so long as the firearm is under control (safely carried) within your vehicle.

Open carry is fine but Constitutional Carry covers everything.

 

Correct on all counts.

 

Is Ohio considering Constitutional carry?

 

There's a bill for both that and SYG in the house.

 

I thought I had heard that. However, it wasn't included in the following projection.

Considering the shift in the last election in state Govenorships and in state legislature, makes me wonder if more states will follow the trend...

I imagine they will.
Sadly, some states are lost forever.

 

Even if the bill fails to become law,it will happen over time anyway,as the states have been slowly transforming their laws towards NO permits at all as two states have done, with others considering it.

Here is a nice website covering this,state by state:

silly law will be filibustered.

which means its dead.

 

I don't think the Democrats want to risk the nuclear option over a law that doesn't actual protect anyone.
