There was some very strong language in the bill protecting people from overzealous LEOs. That language has been removed, so I'm not sure how that's an improvement unless you're a LEO.

How soon will this get to the governor?
How much time does he have to sign it? How long after he signs will this law go into effect? |

Quoted: How soon will this get to the governor? How much time does he have to sign it? How long after he signs will this law go into effect? View Quote 1. not sure, but i'd presume today or tomorrow... 2. i believe he has ten days to sign or veto, ..if he sits on it (does nothing), it becomes law anyway... 3. i believe it's a 90 day grace period before it'll be in effect... |

I think Dewine has 10 days to veto or sign, not counting weekends.

View Quote The RINOs I mentioned are trying to kill the bill saying cops will be searching and detaining everyone, of course non gun owner conservatives were on their side. It's just grandstanding politics on their part. |

In a nutshell what does this law do for/to the CHL holders now, and the non CHL holders currently ?
just as an example if you are not a felon you can carry type a deal.? |

View Quote i'm waiting for an analysis from BFA, ...but to my knowledge: 1) no change to current CHL laws/system... 2) non-CHL carry (constitutional carry) held to same standards (eligibility, restricted places, etc.) as carry w/ a CHL. 3) the bill reforms duty-to-notify, so that you do not have to pre-emptively say you have a gun on you, onus is on the officer to ask you... |

Maybe i missed it or it hasn't been brought up but has dewine mentioned if he'd sign it or veto it? If vetoed would we have enough votes to override?

View Quote i haven't heard if dewine has made any comments of late, but he ran in 2018 on a promise to support constitutional carry... today's vote in the senate is veto-proof by a lot, ..i think only one senator didn't vote, even if that were a no, still veto-proof... today's vote in the house, the tally as-is, is veto-proof, but not really any room for error... i think there were 6 who did not vote, ...i don't know who they are, we'd have to see who and anticipate which way those could go if there were to be another crack at it for an override... |

It seems like his ads on the radio have been trying to appeal to the more conservative side of the R base lately. Maybe he will sign it thinking that if he does we'll all forget/forgive his votes on the Federal AWB. Either way I can't see a veto coming. |

View Quote Question on #3 going foward. This happened last year but what about in the future if this goes through. No CCW, I got stopped for speeding. Local cop, very freindly and let me off being fathers day and I was driving my son to my Dad's. But when he took my license to call it in as he walked away he jokingly said "You don't have any dead bodies or guns in there do you?" So is that asking? I thought that was odd the way he phased it. |

View Quote I would have told him. Some cops are dicks (clearly he let you slide so he probably isn't), and I don't take my chances with that. Hell, I'll still likely end up telling them that I'm armed when I'm stopped. It saves for trouble for if he sees it somehow or for some reason it comes up and he gets squirrely on me. Had that happen when I was 16 and had a pocket knife...so I tend to play it safer in that regard. |

I'll be very surprised if Dewine vetos this bill.
I suspect he will sign it. |

So what does this mean exactly?
Carry concealed the same as ccw but no permit needed? |

Quoted: So what does this mean exactly? Carry concealed the same as ccw but no permit needed? View Quote Basically yes. However, if you are a CHL holder, keep it and renew it when it’s up because only 22 or 23 states have Constitutional Carry. And most states are reciprocal with OH CHL. All your normal firearm and carry laws still apply though. So if you know 21y/o’s that are about to start carrying, encourage them to at least know the laws…My family teaches CHL courses and we have people come in that have been carrying in OH for years, decades, and they have no clue about anything law related. |

View Quote That is most people including most gun owners. There are gun owners at work that think I have some special SWAT clearance operator permit to own NFA items. I know you meant more about use than ownership, but both. Owners son even has a Form 1 SBR and a couple cans and still doesn't know shit. |

What does this do with vehicle carry? Loaded long guns still illegal, but pistols OK?

Quoted: What does this do with vehicle carry? Loaded long guns still illegal, but pistols OK? View Quote yes, there are no changes to the treatment of long guns and associated magazines, etc. no changes to the proper carrying of loaded handguns in the vehicle, except that if enacted, you won't have to have a CHL, so long as you are otherwise non-prohibited from possessing the firearms... ...keep in mind that this bill has not yet been enacted into law, ...if it makes it past dewine, it'll be 90 days thereafter before it's effective... |

Good luck guys, and congratulations for getting it so close. We in Texas made a strong push last year and got Constitutional Carry passed.
State level grassroots gun groups make all the difference. Here' we had GOA Texas organizing us into groups down to House and Senate districts to lobby our reps. You'd be surprised how much stroke a group of 5-10 folks, who are informed citizens, can have. Good times for gun rights. You all, Alabama, Indiana, and Georgia are all poised for CC. Plus a Supreme Court ruling June time frame that most likely will strike down May Issue for Shall Issue. Soon, the leftist states will be Shall Issue, and the conservative states all CC. |

View Quote Thanks. The 90 day wait is silly, too. I understand a delay when the law makes things more restrictive to allow the word to get out; but not when opening things up. I guess to educate the LEOs. |

I have heard that it is veto proof. Can anyone confirm if that is true or not?

Quoted: I have heard that it is veto proof. Can anyone confirm is that is true or not? View Quote It passed both houses by a greater than 3/5, which is the count needed to override a veto. If everyone votes the same, it is veto proof; but only one needs to switch a vote for it to fail in the house. |

Quoted: Thanks. The 90 day wait is silly, too. I understand a delay when the law makes things more restrictive to allow the word to get out; but not when opening things up. I guess to educate the LEOs. View Quote Pretty much this and from past experience, even then, some won't get the word until confronted with it. Don't be surprised or upset if some random cop somewhere didn't know the law changed. I had to educate one of our new hires that we got from some tiny village last week, that Ohio recognizes all state CCW licenses. I'm not saying it's right, just don't be surprised. The burden this will put on police is something that should not worry anyone, but you should be aware of. That is the requirement that someone be legally able to own firearms. Running a criminal history on someone is not as easy as a license check and does require some justification on the officers part. One of the advantages of a CHL is that the officer knows that check has already been done and that person is OK. Do not be shocked if some brief detention for some other reason turns a bit longer if the request a CCH to verify a person is not prohibited. I suppose the easy in theory answer is to flag prohibited persons in the Drivers license / state ID databases, but that would require the courts to actually input that information separately, and of course all those court clerks will object to extra work, even if the databases were modified to include it. |

Unfortunately, this is the thought process of far too many LEO's. People should not be detained until proven innocent. They should be free to go unless there is some reason to believe should be detained. Just carrying a weapon, on its own, is not reason to be detained. After all, that's exactly what this new law will keep from being restricted. ETA: maybe I'm in the minority, but I think all non-violent felons rights should be restored. Probably even some violent felons. Maybe they should have to jump through some hoops to get their rights back, but that should be part of their release process. I have quite a few LEO friends. I realize 90% of the people they come in contact with are breaking the law, with somebody breaking the law or a victim of somebody breaking the law. It's easy to get a skewed view of the general public. |

It is not very common that someone is stopped just for being armed. The key being there is already something else going on here. I think that it is critical going forward that not only police agencies, but the armed public, receive training on use of force laws and general firearms law as it relates to their situations. Knowledge is power, but is often in short supply. BTW, if anyone had a G42 stolen in my area, we just recovered it on a guy we just arrested with adult parole. |

...keep an eye out on Dewine's social media for any comments regarding the passage of SB 215...
...thus, far it seems like radio silence... |
|
OGO (Ohio Gun Owners) urging Gov. Dewine to sign SB 215...
OGO Action Alert: Contact DeWine NOW! ...even the no-compromise group is realizing the significance of getting the bill passed by the legislature into law... ...so, I watch Chris Dorr's video "after action report" video posted on Mar 2nd, ...while he's critical of the house and senate leadership and BFA (I do not agree w/ the criticisms), ...i thought it was a good informative video... in the end he admits: 1. the language removed by the committee amendments were enhancements to current Ohio gun law (those enhancements to current law was not ultimately contained in HB 227).. 2. the bill, SB 215, as passed by both chambers and headed to Dewine, achieves the baseline intended goal of constitutional carry in Ohio. 3. he urges everyone to support getting SB 215 signed by Dewine. ...so, you could claim that the R senate caucus was more audacious, as their bill was attempting to do a bit more than just "constitutional carry" by making changes to the basis of the current carry law, ...and that was ultimately not palatable to enough house members, ...thereby necessitating the amendments in committee, so as not to stall the bill and have it die there. the bill, as passed, maintains the current gun laws, but adds the ability to conceal carry w/out the CHL (..and does modify duty-to-notify) it is my contention, at this time, the the house and senate leadership, and bill sponsor, make the right moves to get us constitutional carry in 2022, and just in time before the primary election in which Dewine is under pressure. ...the sausage-making may be ugly, ..but i think what we saw here is "smart politics" on behalf of the leadership, and it will be to our benefit. |
|
Quoted: How is the Duty To Notify modified in this bill? View Quote ...you no longer are obligated to "promptly inform" the officer during a "terry stop" or similar LEO-related interaction... you are expected to acknowledge that you are legally armed only if the officer asks you specifically. |

I get the feeling he's going to ignore it and let it become law without his signature. I'm sure he's being lobbied heavily by antis. I would think if he was going to sign it, he'd have done it yesterday and gone away for the weekend.
