Allio has sent a petition with 40 signatures on it to Columbus opposing the reform of concealed-carry laws. Ohioans for Concealed Carry has collected the signatures of more than 40,000 Ohioans who support this reform. More than 5 percent of those signatures has come from law-enforcement officers, which strongly suggests that the police chiefs who signed Allio's petition do not necessarily represent the views of all police officers. I am sure that violent criminals throughout the state would agree with him.
Unarmed citizens make easy targets.
You're hit, verbally abused and have to endure drunken, drugged, mean parents day in and day out. Other people see what's happening to you and do nothing to help, maybe because they fear violence, or they just don't know what to do. They can walk out the front door, but you're stuck in your hell. If you leave, someone brings you back, and your hell is worse. The physical and emotional abuse takes its toll.
