OFCC Sues City of Cleveland Heights, Ohio The sign you see here is posted in Cleveland Heights Parks implying possession of a firearm is a crime. On Friday August 12th, 2011 Ohioans For Concealed Carry Filed a lawsuit against the City the City of Cleveland Heights. The litigation comes after many attempts to resolve concerns over laws that Cleveland Heights not only allowed to remain on their books, but also posted signs at their parks that continue to imply it is illegal to be armed. The City of Cleveland Heights has chosen to ignore our attempts at civil discourse. When individuals have contacted them representing themselves as residents of the City of Cleveland Heights their concerns apparently fell on deaf ears. When representatives of the organization have formally contacted the city's legal representation they've been laughed at and hung up on by the Law Director. It is this arrogance and refusal to work with Ohioans For Concealed Carry that has forced us to seek a remedy through the courts.

Canton PD Event Leads to New OFCC Legislation When officer Harless of the Canton, Ohio police department came upon a vehicle stopped in the roadway most of us were focused on getting restaurant carry legislation signed into law. What took place that evening has become an international viral video, calls for the resignation of the City Council president, and criminal charges against a man who is clearly heard trying to state that he has a license. Ohioans For Concealed Carry has not just raised thousands of dollars in a legal defense fund, but we've written legislation to resolve this matter that Representative Danny Bubp has stated he's going to introduce this fall Read the Full Story

Petition Counting This Weekend

Ohioans For Concealed Carry, Inc. is organizing an official petition counting. We need volunteers who are members of the organization to help us out this Saturday, February 17th. We'll be getting together around 9:15am and starting by or before 10am. The location is in southern Cuyahoga County and northern Summit County near I77 and I80 (Ohio Turnpike). I'm bringing donuts, drinks, and maybe even coffee. If you want to come help you need to read the rest of this story... The following provisions may seem extreme, but we have our own reasons for imposing them. The petition counting process is a closed meeting.

Requirements:

  • You must be an OFCC member to attend and help. (No guests)
  • no cameras, no recording devices of any kind.
  • No members of the media will be permitted in the room without prior permission from the OFCC board.
  • Bring photo identification so we know you're really a member and didn't pick a name off the mailing list ;-)

    If you are interested in attending please send email to us at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. so we can send you directions.

    OFCC is providing free donuts and drinks. If we stay past lunch time we'll even order in a pizza.

    Stonewall shooting range is located just 5-10 minutes away from the meeting location and is open to the public. Range time is approximately $10 per person per lane, or $12 per "team" with one shooting at a time. Groups can share a lane by allowing only two people in the range at a time per lane. Anyone interested in shooting after the meeting may see me there :-)

    NOTE: We don't know how long this might take. The more people that show up, the faster we can do this. The process has a few steps, involves counting, writing, and simple math. We have the space we're securing between 9am and 4:30pm, but we hope to be out of their sooner!
