A commentary by Jack D’Aurora of the Behal Law Group LLC, and producer of Lawyer Up! podcast and blogs on social and political issues, was printed in the Columbus Dispatch today.

In this editorial, he states:
State legislatures, either stymied by the thought of judicial review or fearful of political fallout, are doing nothing, and Republican dominated legislatures promote gun proliferation. Ohio’s General Assembly wants to do away with permits for concealed carry.

Ponder this: in the last two decades 15,000 military members and civilian contractors died in the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, not that much higher than the number of gun homicides here in 2020 alone.
