On this week's episode:
Doing Something On Gun Violence
Gov. Mike DeWine continues to advocate for his 17-point plan to stem gun violence. Two points will likely cause the most controversy at the Statehouse: The expansion of mandatory to include private sales over the internet and at gun shows, and the "" that would allow police to confiscate the guns of people in danger of committing violence to themselves or others.
Republican leaders, who usually see any tightening of gun laws as a violation of the Second Amendment, say they are open to discussing DeWine’s proposals. But some pro-gun groups are skeptical.
Snollygoster Of The Week
