Concealed-Carry Advocates Announce Historic Civil-Defense Rights Coalition
"Concealed-Carry Advocates Announce Historic Civil-Defense Rights Coalition

Coalition Endorses House-passed Version of House Bill 12 as Best Approach to Stem Ohio’s spiraling violent crime epidemic

New FBI Crime Reports Prove Michigan’s CCW Law Working


<snip>
Representing one quarter of a million Ohioans, the Civil-Defense Rights Coalition is comprised of five Second Amendment-related groups, including the National Rifle Association, the Ohio Rifle & Pistol Association and the Second Amendment Sisters; the Buckeye State Sheriff’s Association (representing Ohio’s highest-ranking law enforcement officials); more than 50 Ohio businesses; and the Ohio Young Republicans (the entire list of Coalition members can be viewed here).

I'm hoping we can get this passed over the objections of our Republican governor.

2. Do you avoid the other 36 states with right-to-carry laws?
Or the 9 with "may issue" systems?

Do you restrict your travels to Ohio, Illinois, Kansas, Wisconsin, and Nebraska?

4. CCW Laws Don't Make ME Feel Any Safer
Many states once had Jim Crow laws. Does THAT make them proper?

6. "Jim Crow laws" = Red Herring

"Many states once had Jim Crow laws. Does THAT make them proper?"

Of course not. But please try again.

Fortunately for you, Colorado's CCW law does make you safer, whether you choose to exercise your rights or not.

(Edited to fix typo.)
