COLUMBUS, Ohio - Despite a last minute push to urge Gov. John Kasich to veto House Bill 495, which changes the way people can carry guns in vehicles and where vehicles with guns could park, the governor’s office says he will sign the legislation.

On Sunday, the Dean of Cleveland’s Trinity Cathedral called on the governor to veto the changes in the wake of the tragedy in Newtown Connecticut.

Rev. Tracey Lind saying allowing guns in state parking garages, like the ones under the state house would put “at risk thousands of Ohio school children every year who come to our statehouse,” she said.

“I think it’s time that we all be able to stand up to the gun lobby and say enough,” said Lind. “I think it’s time for us to have a real conversation both at the state level and at the federal level about real gun reform, about violence in America, about what’s making people want to do this sort of violence and how can we curb that.”

Kasich intends to sign gun bill, rejecting call for a veto in wake of Connecticut shootings

December 17, 2012 at 6:30 PM

Columbus -- Gov. John Kasich said Monday he intends to sign a new concealed carry law allowing guns into the Statehouse parking garage, rejecting a call to veto the bill in the wake of last week's shootings in Connecticut.

The Republican governor is expected to sign the legislation this week, which allows guns for the first time in the parking garages which run underneath the state Capitol in Columbus. Gun owners would have to keep their weapons in their cars as guns are forbidden within the walls of the Statehouse.

1. Show 'em Kasich, you sick MF'er

[Bigmack]

2. People like Kasich make me profoundly embarrassed

to have to admit to citizenship in this WEIRD violence laden land. Ms Bigmack

[chuckstevens]

3. WTF

WTF! How did Dem Gov Ted Strickland lose to this asshole anyway?

[leftlibdem420]

29. What do you mean? It was 2010.

Nothing the American electorate did made very much sense at all that year.

[liberal N proud]

4. Wild West Ohio

Don't fuck with anyone in Ohio, they might have a gun, even on the road.

[Scairp]

7. Yep

Very much like Kentucky in that way. Maybe because so many families came from Kentucky, like mine, and just about everyone else's I knew when I was a kid there.

[BlueDemKev]

5. The Republican Party will NEVER support anti-gun laws.

They are beholden to the gun lobby and relish at the prospect of the gun issue tearing the Democrats apart once again.

[fascisthunter]

6. perfect example of sociopathy

8. FUJK

[Renew Deal]

9. Nothing will change

People haven't grasped that yet. Obama can only do so much.

[jerseyjack]

10. So far, he's only made it worse.

Approved guns in national parks.

[pop topcan]

13. And since then, no detectable gun 'problems' in the parks.

It's a non-issue.

[AndyA]

16. No gun problems in parks YET

It's only a non-issue until it's an issue. At the rate we're going, unfortunately, it might not take long.

[pop topcan]

23. You're right...we need to arrest everyone in case they might someday become criminals.

What a country.

[Jackpine Radical]

25. Does the expression "non-sequitur" ring a bell?

[pop topcan]

26. Yes, since you used it...sure does.

...

[sellitman]

34. Another low post count pro gun post

Seems to be many of you these days.

Your reply had nothing to do with the OP anyhow.

Fuck The NRA

[askeptic]

35. Low Post Count? New Prejudice? New Strawman? Who's obsessed?

So you blab your opinion thousands of times because everyone is -so- interested in what you have to say, but people who aren't so bombastic don't follow your example so THAT is now the attack vector to ppl who disagree with your oh-so-sage opinion?

YOU are the obsessed one!

[pop topcan]

36. It was a direct reply to the post I was replying to. Is that clear enough?

Did you purchase this site from Mr. Allen?...or did he deputize you to issue nastygrams to new people? Thanks for the nice welcome anyway. I've never belonged to the NRA but I'm thinking seriously of joining just to piss off some fascists. BWAHAHAHA

BTW, I've owned guns for probably many more years than you've been alive (over 60) and not one of them ever harmed any person and neither you nor anyone else is going to divest me of them...and yes I am a loyal Democrat when it comes to voting. Sometimes I hold my nose at the polls, though.

[Daniel537]

32. Its been 3 years. At what point do these "problems" kick in?

Also, what happened to all those shootouts that were supposed to break out in bars when Arizona and Tennessee legalized the possession of guns there? These scare tactics aren't working. The fact is these people going through the legal process to obtain their firearms are not the people we need to be worrying about.

[loyalkydem]

11. Keep it up, you'll be a one term gov.

[PFunk]

20. I think he already knows that

and thus electorate be damned this is to secure his 'Koch/FOX nest' egg afterwards.

[Arugula Latte]

12. This is a country of bloodthirsty lunatics. I hang my head in shame.

[pop topcan]

14. I have guns that have never harmed anyone. For 60 years. I guess I'm a bloodthirsty lunatic.

Thanks a lot.

[mokawanis]

21. So what?

What's your position on gun control legislation?

[pop topcan]

22. I can't comment on hysterical calls for non-specific measures. I have no problem with opening up

the national database for individual sellers so buyers can be checked for criminal or insane backgrounds. Other than that, I strenuously oppose any further unnecessary laws that wouldn't accomplish anything useful. Doesn't the fact that 99.9999% of gun owners never cause any problems mean something to you?

[babsbunny]

15. 1 term Gov

can't wait...............

[onehandle]

17. The last gasp of white power.

So glad that we will be the minority very soon.

[underpants]

19. I agree

well said

[mimi85]

30. True however

I have a feeling, despite assholes like Kasich and ole Louie Gohmert, things just might change this time, at least a bit.

I hate to even think this, much less say it, but I asked my husband if he thought the reaction would be different if these were children of color. He said he had no idea and neither do I.

[pop topcan]

38. If you really don't know, read the comments on any local TV station's comment forums after a black

kid/young man is arrested for a crime against white folks. They're essentially identical to those in this forum concerning the NRA and "gun nuts". If you need links, pm me.

[pop topcan]

37. Funny...the local TV station showed a black family in one of the local gun stores shopping for

2 semiautomatic "military style" rifles. They looked like awfully nice folks. I hope they were able to get what they wanted, the place was full and they were almost out of stock on virtually all their products.

[Cosmocat]

18. Does anyone REALLY think the republican House

will ever, in a trillion years, pass ANY kind of firearms legislation that in ANY way pushes BACK even in one little way?

[aquart]

27. Brilliant budget move, Kasich!

The state doesn't have to pay to educate dead kids.

[pop topcan]

28. But it doesn't get to collect taxes later on from them either. Such a fiscal dilemma.

[triplepoint]

31. kasich is a throwback to the 1950s

Expect more of this level of knuckle dragging from him until the end of his term.
