If you're talking about the Ohio Senate, the answer is probably the porcine pinhead pictured here, Sen. Tim Schaffer, (R-Lancaster). He's the sponsor of the stupid gun bill known as Sub. SB 17, which was, incredibly, passed in the Senate last week by the heavy R majority. With any luck, it will die a well-deserved death in the Ohio House.
Schaffer's bright idea would allow those Ohioans with a concealed-carry gun license to bring their lethal weapons into bars and restaurants, as long as they don't drink alcohol or show up already drunk. I guess bartenders and waiters would not only ask for your ID, but frisk you for weapons and if one was found, ask for your concealed-carry license and then administer a breathalyzer to see if you'd already had a few.
It would also permit the concealed-carry people to openly display their guns while traveling in motor vehicles, freeing them from the "oppressive" current rule which says keep your piece in the goddam glove box, cowboy! Schaffer's bill would let a person hold a gun while driving, stick a gun out the car window, twirl it on a finger, or hang it on the rear-view mirror like fuzzy fuckin' dice! Lovely!
Both law enforcement and the food and beverage industry are strongly opposed to this bit of idiocy, and even the Columbus Dispatch has come out against it. You know you've got a turd when even the Dispatch gives it a thumbs-down.
Previously, Schaffer introduced a bill which would have required a urine test to qualify for state aid for things like heating, housing, medical or food assistance. Tim wanted to protect us from addicts mooching off the system. Appropriately, the bill went nowhere. Apparently, everybody except Timmy knows that you can't buy liquor or drugs with food stamps. What a moron!
