The Cowardice Bill puts agressors in charge. This is the purpose of such pressure. Gang thugs are to be given primary respect.

Michael Weinman, director of governmental affairs for the Ohio Fraternal Order of Police, said deadly force should be a last option, not first.
The fear is this will embolden people. Instead of allowing for a cool-down period, they immediately react to whatever upset them.
Deadly force is the first option of criminals and muggers, you idiot.
One who is being accosted by a mugger, a thief, or a group of thugs playing the "Blacks KnockDown a White person" game needs to react immediately to save his person
and his life. Nobody ever talked a group of these drugged up heathens out of beating himm senseless or to death, in some cases. Get a damn clue, you witless dope.

My point is that those laws don’t pass constitutional muster, and you won’t find me complying.

a. Second Amendment requires NO TRAINING.
We are sharpshooters and marksmen/women from the age of 8 up here.
b. "Its basically the same you cant use lethal force in either case unless you fear serious bodily injury or death."
GIMME A BREAK-
Police use lethal force all the time, sometimes on UNARMED CITIZENS because they DO NOT KNOW IF THEY FEAR SERIOUS BODILY INJURY OR DEATH coz they cannot see a weapon, sometimes only a bulge or dark object.
Then they want to be JUDGE AND JURY illegally at that moment instead OF RETREATING-
the POLICE WANT TO FIGHT and SHOOT TO KILL, not retreat
NO ONE CAN PREDICT 100% that an outcome is deadly or not
Are these people GOD??
This is a stupid non-sequitur argument.

That statement proves cops are NOT your friends. Some people here on FR need to wake up.
Most cops now want to be the ones to have guns, not you!

It's all about M O N E Y.

The animals need to be put back in their place. This law is definitely a step forward in the right direction.

“Ohio police, police chiefs and prosecutors oppose the proposed change in law.”
Of course, this comes from the LEO’s in a state where speeding is a capital crime.
The cops here in California scare me, but the one’s in Ohio are Marxist thugs.

You won't get even a seventeenth of a little bitty part of an eleventeenth of an argument from me on that.

Retreat is limited to securing a Modified Weaver stance or hard cover.
