When Hidden Compartments are Outlawed...

If you live in Ohio, you need to get involved now, as this latest bit of presumptuous police state enabling/ forced degradation has been fast-tracked. [Read]

Ohioans for Concealed Carry elaborates via email: 
URGENT - IF YOU ARE CONCERNED BY THE DANGERS THAT SB305 WILL BRING TO MOTORISTS IN OHIO YOU MUST CALL YOUR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES IMMEDIATELY AND EVERY SINGLE DAY THIS WEEK - DO NOT EMAIL THEM AS EMAIL HAS BEEN RENDERED USELESS -- CALL THEM, LEAVE A MESSAGE IF YOU MUST, AND HAVE EVERYONE YOU KNOW DO THE SAME. THIS BILL IMPACTS EVERYONE -- NOT JUST GUN OWNERS. To identify your representative go to http://www.legislature.state.oh.us -- On the right side of that page click on "House" and "Zip Code" and then enter your zip code. If more than one representative is listed CALL BOTH OF THEM. Leave them a voicemail and tell them you share Ohioans For Concealed Carry's concerns over SB305 and that you do not want it fast tracked to the Governor until it is improved -- or defeated. 
I just did. The staffer for my rep, Kristina Roegner, did not know her position on this but said they had been getting quite a few calls. I conveyed my expectation that we will see leadership from her on this, including a public statement.I got the typical promise that my message would be passed on, but no commitment that my representative would represent liberty.

We shall see, and then we shall react accordingly.  In a perfect world, "leaders" wouldn't need to be led.

  1. Let's assume this will be passed into law.

    Then, of course, it only applies to those who live in the state, not those of us in transit or visiting.

    What, you never heard of the Constitutional requirement to honor all laws of other states?

    Of course, there are so many constitutional requirements they don't honor now . . .

    Laws that engender nothing but disprespect for the Law are, shall we say, counter-productive.
