Ohio Republicans succeeded Thursday in legalizing the carrying of guns in places where liquor is sold, such as bars, night clubs, shopping malls, sports venues and restaurants. The bill was passed earlier in the month.

But manager Ken George of Eddy & Iggy's Sports Bar in Lakewood said he is a fan of the measure. It makes sense to allow law-abiding bar patrons to carry weapons to protect themselves against criminals, he said.
"I just think everybody's safer when everybody has guns," George said.
