Carry Reciprocity Progress--Ohio

[Farmritch]

This has always been the issue why Ohio never recognized Indiana's permit.
Ohio requires Training Indiana does not.

Any chance of getting reciprocity before Christmas?

Between slim and none. Unfortunately, Slim won't be home for Christmas.

What I figured. Oh well, one of these days...

 

[Chkline]

Sure hope this passes and honors our permit. I'm in OH all the time for work.

 

[bsoberg]

it would be nice we do rib cook off there 4 or5 times a year hope this passes

This just in from the "kicking a dead horse" department: Utah!

I hope Ohio paves the way for a national law coming into effect

Ugh, I have to go up to Cleveland for a family Christmas party from the 26th-30th. Sure wish I could be carrying up there.

You can... just not concealed.

Woohoo this would be great! Wife and I go to Cincy all the time since she works there, good shopping and eating.

The reciprocity language has been stripped from the senate bill:

HB495: Headed to Governor Kasich's Desk | Ohio Legislation | News

Looks like OH will be another state like IL to avoid driving through, or spending any money in.

Maybe it's time to revisit our reciprocity with Ohio then.

Sad to say, I honestly don't think they would care.

It doesn't say that it was stripped only that they expect that it might have been or that it might be next summer before it goes into affect.

OFCC expects that the reciprocity reforms in HB495 were stripped or, at the very least, will not go into effect until July of 2013 giving the 130th General Assembly an opportunity to revisit the changes.

Good catch.
I was apparently influenced by other articles and misinterpreted what I read.

I live right on the IN/OH border and have been trying to watch this very close. I certainly hope that they keep the reciprocity changes that they made. I noticed the article was from last night and it said he would update today with more specifics but I haven't found an updated article yet.

No. Our laws should not become more restrictive because their laws are wrong; The whole "two wrongs don't make a right" thing...

What needs to happen is that their legislators need to change their law to recognize all permits/licenses/permission slips (at a minimum) or to create Constitutional Carry (best case scenario)

What can we do? If you have family there, have them contact legislators or better, contact them yourself whether you have family there or not, advising them that you won't be coming to their state to spend any money as long as their laws remain so backward. Continue contacting them until the changes we know are right happen.

Hell, even suggest to them a "sunset provision", that if the violent crime rate within their state has not increased, that the law becomes permanent, or if it rises *because of licensed/permitted individuals*, the law reverts to its present form. Win/win/win.

Blessings,
Bill

Surprisingly, constitutional carry has been proposed in OH, and it sounds like there's a current bill, HB256, that can be supported (not sure of its status).
