Ohio lawmakers override governor's veto, pass new gun law

[billh58]

Ohio House Bill 228 began its legislative journey with what critics called a stand your ground provision, which would have eliminated the legal requirement to retreat from a perceived threat of violence before firing a gun.

A Senate committee in Columbus had previously removed that provision in order to secure enough votes to pass the bill Thursday, despite Gov. John Kacisch's veto.

"It was a huge win for Ohioans across the state," Michele Mueller said, referring to the removal of the stand your ground provision.

Mueller is with the Cincinnati chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America.

Not a total win, but a step in the right direction. Stand-your-ground laws promote vigilantism and legalize summary executions. There is absolutely nothing "polite" about killing.
