Activists Debate Gun Bill Headed Toward Kasich's Desk

The school shootings in Connecticut are sparking more debate over a bill Ohio legislators just OKed, allowing the storing of concealed weapons in cars in the Statehouse parking garage in downtown Columbus. Gun control activists are urging Gov. John Kasich to veto the proposal, but supporters of gun owner rights are defending it. Statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen files this report.
