Delay-tactics on HB12 costing lives

It's been nearly four weeks since the Senate adjourned for summer break without appointing conferees to work out differences on Am. Sub. HB12. As Senate leaders enjoy another week in their home districts, the defenseless victim list in Ohio continues to grow.

Not all citizens must choose to carry a concealed firearm for Ohio to benefit from the reformation of concealed-carry laws.

Even if these victims had the legal choice to carry and opted not to, statistics and experience prove their attackers would have been more cautious, perhaps even to the point of choosing different targets, aware that their intended victim might be armed. As it stands, and thanks to a few bureaucrats, criminals know they are the ONLY ones who are carrying concealed firearms.

Every day that Ohio's Republican leadership waits to fix Am. Sub HB12 and send it to Gov. Taft increases the defenseless victim list in our state, and forces otherwise law-abiding citizens into making a choice between facing felony arrest or being unable to defend themselves. This simply should not be.
