Ohio bill would target protesters with terrorism law - WTRF
The Ohio House has approved legislation targeting protesters with a provision normally used against terroristic activity.
The legislation approved Wednesday would allow police officers harmed during riots to sue individuals or organizations that provided material support or resources, such as lodging or transportation.
Material support is conduct tied in state and federal law to actions by alleged terrorist groups.
The bill also increases penalties for rioting and creates the offenses of riot assault and riot vandalism.
The American Civil Liberties Union calls the legislation an extreme attack on free speech.
Also Wednesday, the House approved legislation prohibiting Ohio governments from stopping sales of guns or ammunition during a public emergency.
