Ohio has joined the surrounding states in eliminating the provision that CCW holders can carry in Class D liquor establishments, like bars and restaurants. This is the law in Pennsylvania (among other places) where I was recently at a 2nd Amendment function at a restaurant, with a bunch of folks who were open carrying). It was a very tasty dinner, with a lot of admiring of holsters.
But no-one got shot, and very few of us were actually drinking. It seems that a bunch of adult, well-mannered armed people exercised their second amendment rights and…nothing happened. It would be nice if that could happen in my home state, I eat in a lot of bars and taverns. Pub grub is good food.
We haven’t quite joined–although extremely similar bills have passed both houses, they were not quite identical so will have to be reconciled before going to the governor.
