Ohio CHL Fix-it bill to be introduced

Thanks for posting that link. Rep. Jim Aslanides' bill looks pretty good. It sounds like he has a lot of support for it as well. Maybe between this bill and Rep. Tom Brinkman's we can get the needed improvements passed. Man I hate that 'in plain sight' while in a vehicle. I'd love to see that removed.
 
As would most of the actual street officers I know. If they're in favor of a CCW system (and the majority are), they think the plain view requirement is silly in conjunction with the requirement to notify.

in car computer?

May I suggest, the patrol car computer should no longer reflect ccw status and police officers may no longer ask about presence of firearms in car during traffic stop without probable cause.
 
I hope that at least 3 of those things get fixed...

1 the "Plain sight while in car" thing

2 Pre-emption of ALL local laws & regs

3 Close the MEDIA ACCESS LOOPHOLE

one other I would like to see, but I know is A.H. { "ain't happening" } is that anyone named Taft from Ohio cannot ever hold elected office. :evil: :evil:
 
Oh-No...this seems to make some sense. Can this be happening in the Buckeye state? Hide it from Gov. Taft and his traffic enforcer troopers, the Ohio Highway Patrol.
 
We can hope it will pass. Keep an eye on our website, BuckeyeFirearms.com for updates. I will also post them here as they come up.

No mention of rest areas. As long as rest areas remain criminal empowerment zones I'll continue using Indiana for my travels South. The rest of these issues meant nothing to me.
 
How sad a commentary is it?

A valid point was made that a court may toss this much needed improvement bill because it stipulates citizenship. Very sad state of affairs when we must cater to those from the outside while those from home get the shaft. As far as the greencard issue, I can agree with it as long as their home country allows them to own a handgun. If you want to come here to take advantage of rights now recognized in your country, welcome to America. But no freeloading! Become a citizen!

That's the whole point of the green card: it's part of the process of becoming a citizen. Unfortunately, the process takes (considerable) time.
 
Standing Wolf,
It's part of the process. I have a friend who was born in Berlin, Germany. She's applying to become a LA police officer. She's in the process of becoming as US Citizen.
 
Standing Wolf:
I didn't mean that it's unfortunate that the process takes time, but that to deny somebody his rights until that time goes by is unfortunate. I can see where I was unclear.

As I've stated innumerable times, I tend toward the view that the rights in question belong to everybody, not just citizens, but for this discussion, I think the green card is pretty good evidence that he intends to become a citizen, and should be allowed to enjoy his rights as any citizen would.
 
Unfamiliar with immigration issues

I'm not familiar with the legal process of becoming a citizen, but reading what you who know more than I on the subjuct leads me to think we share the same opinion. If someone has come here and is in process to become a citizen they should not be treated as second class people just because the red tape and legal process takes time.
