COLUMBUS [OH] - The Republican-controlled Senate narrowly overrode Gov. Bob Taft's veto of a concealed-carry weapons bill Tuesday.
The override, the first of any governor in 29 years, means that more than 80 local gun ordinances, including Cincinnati's assault weapons ban, will be abolished in 90 days....
Groups supporting gun owners say the state legislation overturns a confusing patchwork of local bans and restrictions.
But in Cincinnati, where homicides stand at a near-record 79 this year, Mayor Mark Mallory says, "This doesn't help."
