Though our governor doesn't have the DeSantis or Abbott cajones, our Legislature is at least looking out for us and has now introduced this bill to make Ohio a 2A Sanctuary!! :) Praise God, we may get through this yet!
As an Ohiofag, I hope like hell this get through.
Me too, I assure you. I wrote to the representatives who sponsored this to thank them. One of them wrote back within an hour to say the following: "I took an oath to support and defend our great American Constitution. This is something I take very seriously. I have always fought to defend our Second Amendment and other constitutional rights and will continue to do so." God bless her / God bless Ohio / God bless the USA Please write your representatives and make sure they hear you. Bombard them with emails and tell your Ohio friends to do the same.
Ohio fag and a diehard cubs fan since 2016. :p
Sincerely an attendee of Wrigley Soutg in Cincinnati.
You're from Cincy and you are a Cubs fan??? The fuq! This is blasphemy!
Not a cubs fan, but the last few games in cincy there was more blue then red.
As long as you're not a freaking OSU fan, also.
Why are the Buckeyes making your butt sore?? Share the pain...
I'm waiting on DeSantis to not only make this a 2A Sanctuary State, but also a legal open carry State.
I'm sure it won't be long. You have a fighter for a governor. That must be nice. I was just saying to my husband it would be nice if our governor wasn't such a soyboy. But, at least our Legislature has our back. I'll take what I can get.
I'm asking all Ohioans to write to your representative and encourage them to vote YES on this bill when it comes for a vote.
I believe there is a petition up at change.org to recall Dewine
We went from having rights that are universal throughout this nation and that every American citizen enjoys, to now where you have to find sanctuary from your own federal gov't.
Next up is succession. Like minded states will succeed and form a new nation.
Ugh, I really wish people would wake up to the fact that this not a good idea.
We will NOT surrender ANY of our land and resources to these Evil fucks that don't deserve to stay in possession of ANYTHING.
We're not surrendering our country and fellow Americans over to commies, not even a small part of it.
^^^This right here.
Never said it was a good idea, just said that if things don't change rather quickly, it is what will eventually happen. I'd rather not see it happen as I'd rather watch a good reality TV show called Hang Man Live.
It's not surrendering our nation to commies. It's claiming the land that we already have and preserving the constitution.
I hate the idea of secession too but there eventually comes a time for it.
It's going "Okay commies, you can keep that land you stole from us, we're going to go stay over here like good little kids and leave you to rule over that which you stole."
We do those things by sticking together as a country and claiming ALL of our land and resources, AND the constitution. By splitting apart if anything you're only making it easier on the DS. They'll finish consolidating their power there before they come after the new smaller nation of those who ran away from the first fight.
We either stick this out together, or live in shame in our "new nation" for a short time before we're infiltrated and subverted again anyway, only now with less power to fight against them.
And we all know they wouldn't stay on their stolen land. Then they'd just invade the state that seceded as they would claim it as a hostile entity.
No. Like minded Communists can get the F out of our country.
Ohio, Ohio, it's off to work we go...
Ohio COULD be one of the greatest states in the nation. There are patriots abound, and the legislative groundwork is there. We just have these weenie politicians like DeWine, Kasich, and a laundry list of others that always seem to be pulling the brake and slowing down the process. We also have like 6 major metropolitan areas that have been deep blue for years and have been destroyed by lefty politics. Its always an uphill battle
"Weenie" is such a good word for DeWine. (DeWeenie!) Kasich is a horse's ass. Thank GOD he's gone. I think you're absolutely right. I'm not thrilled about the AG Dave Yost either. He's very questionable.
Same. His milquetoast statement attached to the TX SCOTUS case and the amount of time it took him to act at all made me suspicious.
Completely agree. He's the embodiment of a weenie.
Ohio just recently signed the, “Stand Your Ground” bill. Ohhhh, you want to hurt someone or steal my stuff?!?! Click, Click, Boom
Yes they did - and that is effective on April 6th, so it hasn't even taken effect yet, but some douchebag liberal on our Legislature had the nerve to introduce a bill to repeal Stand Your Ground before we have even had the opportunity to enjoy it! He's about to get shut down...
Stupid leftist doesn’t realize Ohio went in the Trump column early and easily. They’re trying to make OH a shithole and I’m sure Les Wexner is doing as much as he can too.
Well unfortunately we have 3 major cities (and corresponding counties) which went blue - Cleveland, Columbus and Cincinnati. Of course - the urban areas. They don't even know why they vote blue. Thankfully the other 85 counties know better!
Hamilton County is losing population & the corresponding tax revenue like crazy. The good folks that are originally from Cincy have flocked to the outlying areas to escape the shithole that Hamilton County is becoming. This follows the same model of every heavily populated urban area in the country.
Good to know! Thank you! I'm up north in a suburb of Cleveland.
I’m from Northern Kentucky, worked in Cincinnati for years, and now live south of Cleveland.
I'm from Cincy, moved to NKY (Florence) about 8 years ago, & work at Graeter's Ice Cream in Bond Hill.
Yeah as of right now, Stand Your Ground is passed and set to take effect on 4/6, while 2A sanctuary has been introduced by 2 legislators and will be heard (and hopefully passed soon!) :)
This will be huge, if it pans out.
"2A Sanctuary" is a whole new ball of wax compared to anything that's happened so far, because it implies residents/businesses will be able to legally manufacture, purchase, and possess ordinarily super-illegal items like machine guns, suppressors, and SBRs.
Imagine being able to go to the LGS and buy a 3rd-hole AR lower, a full-auto trigger group set, suppressor, 40mm launcher + grenades, and all the fixings to put it together. All without any background check.
Just like the dispensary situation, for those of us in pot-legal states. The precedence of pot legalization flying in the face of federal law is huge, for states being able to get away with 2A sanctuaries.
Not just that, but the illegal alien sanctuary states paved the way for this. In fact, they're making sanctuaries for that which is illegal by federal law. We're just trying to keep our freedom and that which is already legal, legal. Please pray for our legislators, governors and AG's who are trying to make this happen.
Oh yeah... I don’t even know why I didn’t think of that variety of “sanctuary”, which (AFAIK?) coined the term, as a word for normalizing this kind of action. Guess that only emboldens the point, in how we should go ahead with this 2A Sanc. State thing. There’s no reasonable defense for allowing state’s to violate federal drug and immigration laws, but not gun laws.
To be honest, I was until very recently, an atheist. I’m still not in the habit for praying regularly and am in some kind of odd transitional phase atm. But I will make good on your request!
I've found it to be very comforting. Prayer and attending church have helped me tremendously. And I'm not even at the point where I'm "saved" as they would consider it, but it's enough for me to keep from freaking out about what's going on in our country. I'm a lot more together than I was on Jan. 6th, that's for sure. I hope you find the same comfort. :) Note: all churches are not the same. Some will welcome you and make you feel really good, and some will make you feel horrible for being born ("sinner!!"). If you find you're not happy at one, just go to another. I'd hate to think of someone on the verge of finding their faith, only to be discouraged by the wrong church.
Texas, what the fuck is the hold up?
Maybe this will help: https://www.newsmax.com/politics/texas-greg-abbott-gun-rights-second-amendment/2021/02/08/id/1009050/ It sure looks like there's a lot of pissed off democrats because he wants nothing to do with their gun control shit. So that's promising!
Fuck NewsMax, they're Fox 2.0 and I'm not giving them my clicks.
Why don't people just throw off US citizenship and become an American State National? Gun statutes don't apply to ASN's.

Dammit TEXAS! WTF are you doing? Other states making Texas look cuck as hell! Welp, time for a relocation plan. I'm over Texas being soft Azz cowboy hat wearing tight jeans soy boys! Oh well, guess big lifted pickups are all that matters. Jeez!
Last I heard, Gov. Abbott of TX is making TX a 2A Sanctuary state as well. Believe me, I'd take TX in a heartbeat over OH if I could talk my husband into it. I'm still working on that. I know it's cold over there right now but it's like that every damn year in OH. And your Gov. is way better than Mike DeWeenie of OH. Just my opinion... Don't be so hard on TX. I'm actually hoping to come down to Houston for the NRA convention this year - I can't wait!
I hear ya! Texas is a great place to live, I won't deny that but to use the phrase "Don't Mess With Texas" doesn't hold much weight from what I've seen. All talk! I once lived in Ohio and couldn't stand it. It's just mindblowing to see OHIO put forth way more effort towards freedom than us down here (including other states). It's still brainwashed individuals wearing masks as if it's a new fashion statement. Abbott was actually trying his hardest to emulate Gavin Newsome when all the Covid scam transpired. Florida is leaps and bounds ahead of us! No masks, enjoying the beaches and has a true representative of the people. If Florida decides to go Constitutional Carry, I'm out! Oh, and don't forget the decision of choosing the money grab with solar power down here. Playcating to the left green agenda when we have an abundance of natural resources to prevent the clown show with the power grid. I love this state but it's that time to re-evaluate residency! Commiefornians dragging their left leaning ideologies here too. Dallas, Houston, SA and Austin are all blue!
Ohio usually arrives late, but often does end up going in the right direction.
Very good point. And normally I'm of the mind, "better late than never," but right now they can't get it done quickly enough for me. This is our freedom on the line. I just pray to God that we can become a 2A sanctuary before joe & da hoe start trying to come for our legally owned property.
Amen, timrambo. Unfortunately, the assholes of the country figured out that despite the fact that we have a constitution and a whole slew of laws that should protect us, all they have to do is pass a law or write an EO and the rest of us have to take it to court to challenge it to get it "deemed" unconstitutional. Until then, we are fucked by that law or EO. At least the Governors and Legislators passing 2A sanctuary laws are heading that off at the pass, keeping us from having to sue our way to freedom that we should already have. So, silver linings and all that. God bless you; stay safe!
