Issue Position: Self Defense

Issue Position

Both the United States and Ohio Constitution expressly grant citizens the right to bear arms. This right is not limited based on the amount of rounds one can fit in a magazine or the amount of shots one can shoot in a second. To infringe upon this right by limiting the types of firearms one may own or placing overly burdensome restrictions on the purchase of firearms is oppressive. Therefore, any law-abiding citizen should be able to own any handgun, shotgun, rifle, or any firearm that is necessary or suitable for self-defense or recreation.
