This is the stupidest law you
could ever put into place smh.






Eligible adults in Ohio will soon be able to carry a concealed handgun without a license or training following legislation signed into law Monday night by Republican Gov. Mike DeWine.
Gun rights groups and GOP legislators argue that the new law, set to take effect in mid-June, removes costs and barriers for law-abiding people to exercise their constitutional right to bear arms and for self-defense, while critics argue that it will increase gun violence.
When stopped by police, a person will no longer have to "promptly inform" the officer that they're carrying a concealed handgun, though they will have to disclose that they have a concealed handgun when an officer asks them.

The law also lowers the penalty for not telling a police officer about a concealed handgun from a first-degree misdemeanor to a second-degree misdemeanor and does not allow a police officer to arrest a person solely because they didn't promptly show their concealed carry license.


People who had violated the prior notification requirements may also apply to have their record expunged.

For those who want to obtain the concealed carry license, current Ohio law requires eight hours of training, including two hours of in-person training, to obtain a concealed carry license. Concealed carry applicants apply with their county sheriff and must pay a minimum fee of $67 for a background check and license.

Once in effect, the new law will still allow Ohioans to apply for concealed carry permits, but undergoing training and background check to legally carry a concealed handgun will be optional.

"Nowhere in the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution does it say you have to have training to defend yourself or to bear arms," Republican state Sen. Terry Johnson, who sponsored Senate Bill 215, said last fall.
Proponents of the law, including the National Rifle Association and the Buckeye Firearms Association, say that people still apply and pay for permits and training.
Along with gun safety advocates, law enforcement, including Fraternal Order of Police of Ohio and the Ohio Association of Chiefs of Police, opposed the bill, particularly its modification of the "duty to notify," arguing that it threatens officers' safety.

Other gun safety advocates, including Moms Demand Action, and Dion Green, a survivor of the 2019 shooting in Dayton that killed his father Derrick R. Fudge and eight other victims, testified in opposition to the bill.
The legislation passed the Republican-led Ohio state legislature earlier this month on near party-line votes.
In the wake of the 2019 shooting in Dayton, DeWine announced proposals to address gun violence, such as a "red flag" law and called on lawmakers to pass a law requiring background checks on all firearm sales.
DeWine, who is up for reelection this year, also signed legislation in January that expands where a person has no duty to retreat before using force in self-defense.

Several other states have been forging ahead with permitless carry policies despite the opposition from law enforcement and amid a rise in gun violence and homicides continues across the country.
The law that DeWine signed makes Ohio the 23rd state to enact permitless carry, after Alabama's Republican governor signed similar legislation last week.

Now you won't need a permit
or ANY type of training. This
KKKountry is turning to shit.

Every "red" stated is becoming Mississippi.

I hate to say this, but the rest of us (around the fucking world) need to do whatever the fuck necessary
to restrain and contain whitey.

My father's people had no use for a devil in their belief system. However, I do know this: if there is a devil, the motherfucker
is definitely an inbred, half witted cracker.

There. I said it. Don't judge me. If you do, fuck you too.

This law only applies to White folks.

If you are Black, no felonies or warrants on your record and live a clean life…if a cop catches you with a CCW, they will make your day hard….or end your life.

Their defense will be “I Feared For My Life”.

We gotta be super careful
with this and dealing with

Story Time....

Got pulled over by a White Ohio State Trooper doing 87 in a 65.

I have my CCW and always have a gun in my glovebox.

They know in the system that you have a CCW before they come to your car BTW.

Dude came over to the passenger side and before he could get started. I told him I had a gun in the glovebox and to take it out if he wanted during the stop.

He said, don't worry about it and just asked for my CCW permit. He checked it and gave it back and then went back to his cop car.

He came back about 10 minutes later and gave me my license back and said " Take it easy and slow down a bit"

:eek2: <------ This was my face when he said that. Anyone from Ohio knows that Ohio State Troopers will ticket their own mothers.

Gave me a warning. We fist bumped and I was out!

People sleep on that Ohio/ Indiana/ Midwest racism. Yall better research where the Klan started....
I am from Michigan, which I now call Up South, or the Mississippi of the North.

Indiana is so fucking racist, you can almost cut the racism with a knife, it's so thick. I hate stopping for
gas in that fuck head stated.

History tells us that the great migration resulted in a large number of African Americans moving from the
south to the Midwest, in search of better social circumstances and better job opportunities.

What most histories leave out is the fact that a lot of WHITE folks came to the Midwest, from the same places,
and for the same reasons.

They brought their racism with them. Detroit, and Chicago's South Side are nothing more than big, country ass towns.
You can hear it in the way they talk and the way they behave. And yes, I am from Detroit.

The Midwest is essentially Up South.

A new law signed by Governor Kay Ivey Thursday will cost the Tuscaloosa County Sheriff's Office up to $700,000 annually and make law enforcement more dangerous, Sheriff Ron Abernathy told the Thread Friday afternoon.The bill in question repeals a requirement for Alabama citizens to purchase a concealed carry permit from their county sheriff in order to hide a handgun on their person or carry one in their vehicles.
