New Ohio gun laws expand self-defense protection, prohibit certain, and ban tracking of purchases: Legally Speaking

The article from MSN discusses recent legislative changes in Ohio regarding gun laws, as signed into law by Governor Mike DeWine. These new laws expand self-defense protections by allowing individuals to use firearms in self-defense without the previous duty to retreat if they are lawfully present in that location. Additionally, the legislation prohibits financial institutions from charging specific fees related to owning firearms, such as those for processing payments or transactions involving firearms. It also bans the tracking of firearm and ammunition purchases through mechanisms like merchant category codes, aiming to prevent the creation of a registry of gun owners. These changes reflect a broader push towards enhancing gun rights in Ohio, aligning with Second Amendment advocacy groups' goals to reduce perceived burdens on gun ownership and use.
