Bill Would Prohibit Cities from Banning Guns

Jul 18, 2005, 6:47 AM

COLUMBUS (AP) -- A bill to be introduced soon in the Ohio Legislature would prohibit cities from enacting their own gun laws like the one passed by the Columbus City Council banning assault weapon sales. The measure is being written by the lead sponsor of the concealed-carry law, Representative James Aslanides, and it would also would restrict media access to gun permit records.

The Coshocton Republican says the provisions are among a number of loopholes in the state's gun laws that still need to be addressed.

Aslanides' bill also would clarify that cities cannot ban gun from parks or other places not designated as gun-free zones under state law.

In Columbus, guns defined as assault weapons can no longer be sold after August 11th and residents who already own one must register it with the city.

Yep, so that when the city decides to ban them outright, they know whose door to batter down.
