Opinion
Packing Guns in the Day Care Center
A vote against an Ohio measure that extends concealed-carry privileges would be a rare vote for sanity.I cannot repeal the second amendment without going through the process.
I can ask that it be enforced in detail.
Arms may be kept and born by members of well ordered militias in the pursuit of their public duties.
Hunting guns and ammunition must be duly licensed and available for inspection.
We do not need an armed population.
Edged tools can do enough damage.

The Real Problem with Police Video
Law enforcement officials shouldn’t be allowed to control camera footage.Mass storage is cheap.
Run the camera all shift.
Store the record until all the incidents of the shift are resolved.
Access is by supoena.
Work product of investigations and arrests are part of the permanent record.

Contaminating Our Bodies With Everyday Products
The political system was slow to respond to the truth about cigarettes. Now it’s similarly behind in protecting us from toxic chemicals.It would be good if congress did its job.
It would be better if the journalists did theirs.
It is best if the electorate does its job on the best information available.
Journalists must inform the public when congress is not serving the public interest so the voters can change congress.
