Columbus Students Stage Protest At Statehouse Over Gun Laws

Dozens of Columbus Schools students staged a demonstration against gun violence Thursday at the Statehouse. They want state lawmakers to toughen gun regulations, including banning assault rifles. They're also planning to go to Washington to talk with Republican U.S. Senator Rob Portman about gun control. Portman has accepted more than 3 million dollars in campaign contributions from the National Rifle Association.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
