Fight and Vote, but not hunt in Ohio

According to some Democrats in Ohio, individuals between the ages of 18 and 20 are old enough to fight and die for their country as well as participate in the electoral process to decide the future of the country but hunting is apparently a more severe and complicated affair requiring supervision of "real" adults over the age of 21.

House Bill 354, sponsored by Rep. Barbara Boyd, D-Cleveland Heights, and Sandra Williams, D-Cleveland, prohibits anyone under 21-years-old from possessing a firearm. Under the bill, if an adult or youth who does not meet the age requirement plans to handle a firearm, he or she must do so in the presence of someone 21 or over. Licensed hunters who now take to the woods solo will have to bring a supervisor if the bill passes.

And of course it's all to "save the children", children being defined by the Brady Bunch.
