But I know I am right about when H.B.12 was introduced. And I still think he may FLIP FLOP if elected, Just like SHAFT. However Petro may really have changed his stance on 2A. Or he may be paying 2A lip service for political gain.
For as long as HB12 has been in force, Petro has aggressively defended our concealed carry rights and has worked ceaselessly to gain reciprocity for Ohio's CHL with other states. He was gracious enough to come to the bigtime OFCC Get Together this summer and address this motley crew. We ought not to receive and repeat an evil report lightly unless it is grounded in fact.
If Mr. Petro "flip flopped" I guess he "flopped" onto the right side.
I resent the portrayal, frankly, especially in the absence of anything to back up the claims.
A bird in the bag is worth two on the wing. Mr. Blackwell is an attractive option, but he's untried.
Mr. Petro has demonstrated where his loyalties are.
If MY MEMORY serves me correctly he was PIVOTAL in getting HB12 passed.
As for the poison pills??? I cannot imagine he endorsed those. Speaking of which....let's get him into the governor's office and let's make those 'poison pills' disappear.
