1. People under the age of ***28*** were cited as the primary perpetrators of shooting violence, as meaningless a statement as has ever been made.
2. Any such bills have ZERO chance of passage. Southern Ohio would secede first.

We have preemption, like Virginia. That's why the perpetually confused Mayor Jackson is engaged in this utterly futile effort at the state level.

What Cleveland needs is a law banning violent criminals from possessing firearms...
What? Oh, I am sorry, there already is one.

Ya know after almost 40 years in Arizona, having been dragged kicking and screaming from Ohio, I started to have hankerings to "go home". With both parents dead, and most of my family there, there is nothing holding me to AZ.
Mrs denfoote has expressed a desire to move somewhere "cooler" as well.
But every time I read about krap like this I begin to have second thoughts!!

Were i to describe the typical Cleveland street corner, I'd probably be run out on a rail for being a racist or some other sort of malcontent.
You can't go a day without hearing a dozen lame public service announcements about children going hungry and "just call this number for free *insert whatever*"
Don't want to get shot at? stay out of that "poor & startvin" rathole. Cleveland deserves Frank Jackson.
Unless you are VERY heavily armed and fluent in Ebonics and/or Spanish.

Denfoote, sell that two room ranch in Arizona and come to Wayne county and buy a mansion. With the housing market flubbing, everything is up for sale on the cheap. High temp this summer, low 100's, but humid. Short winter this past one (one,maybe two good snows south of the snow belt), though this year could be worse. Ohio is where the sensible people live. 
Really, it IS getting better here. The CCW law was fixed a good bit (some ways to go, still), Castle Doctrine has been introduced several times (but allowed to die in committee through delays), and most businesses respect the rights of the customer to conceal carry. Ohio is a swing state because we still have some people with common sense left. After Katrina, however, we got a surge in liberals, so we need some conservatives to keep balance in the Force.

You guys really need to leave my Browns alone!
Having gotten that out of the way; I have a "friend" who is a Cleveland TA cop who threatened to arrest me if I brought my AR15 there. Hard to tell if this guy is joking or not!

I'll guess I'll just get down to it and leave the ranting for later.
No enfranchised citizen should ever be seen differently in the eyes of the law based solely upon their race, religion, age, or gender.
I can vote, I pay taxes according to the same system, and I can be held accountable for my actions the same as anyone else, 18, or 81.

You must come from a very sheltered background.
I'm from Chicago. To me, Cleveland is Lake Woebegone.

Politicians, especially liberal ones, love to pass new laws almost as they love to raise taxes. Since it is already illegal for most youths to have firearms, illegal to fire in town, illegal to carry concealed, illegal to threaten with a weapon, illegal to shot anyone, they still want a new law to make them safer?
Why not just pass a law that says people cannot break existing laws, under penalty of law? That should satisfiy their lust for new law and would do just as much good as any other that dummy suggests.
