Cincinnati Post reveals multiple personalities
Submitted by cbaus on Wed, 04/16/2003 - 11:52.Readers and subscribers of the Cincinnati Post were presented with a bit of a paradox in their April 16 issue.

Or rather...restrictive laws like Ohio's concealed weapons ban have not worked to protect the innocent, nor to prevent the actions of criminals?

But what is normal has shifted in ways both obvious and subtle. Consider how war has affected just one issue: the debate over gun control.
