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.

House leaders announced Tuesday that three more session days have been added to the schedule for next month in anticipation of needing more than the four session days already scheduled to act on pending issues, including a prescription drug program and public employee pension fund governance and investment procedures.

Commentary:
They must also act on HB12.

Now that Gov. Taft has finally proven he will oppose ANY bill that comes out of the legislature, it is incumbent upon the House and Senate to find the best possible compromise, and send the bill to Taft. If he vetoes, he vetoes.

Republicans who were once 'reluctant' to take a stand against Taft due to party solidarity must now realize that Taft cares nothing for solidarity. He lied to them. If they do their jobs, the votes are clearly there for an override. If they do not...those who are not term-limited, and who wish to seek re-election, will be challenged.
