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

To Chad and everyone else at OFCC:
I'm stationed at LSA Anaconda in Balad, Iraq. Well actually just outside Balad. It is approximately 68 clicks north of Baghdad. I've been on quite a few missions to [places you're hearing about on tv].
One thing I get to enjoy over here is the legal ownership of full auto weapons, though it is unfortunate I will have to give up my all-matching serial number AK when I come home. I wish there was a legal way to keep it, but such is US law.
Since the elections things has quieted down for us a bit. Our daily mortar
barrages have slowed down to once or twice a week. I must tell you I'm very
encouraged by what I see here.It is an incredible thing to witness and be here at the birth of a new democracy. I wish every American could see and feel this. These people make me think of what it must have been like during our own revolution and success against the British. The overwhelming majority of the people appreciate the sacrifice of our nation so much. They still want to shake your hand and let you know how happy they are. The people here are informing on the insurgents now and are using the single-per-household AK-47's that almost every house has to help deter and stop insurgent violence. I can only hope that they build into their constitution something along the lines of our 2nd Amendment, worded in such a way that its meaning can never be doubted. Ownership of personal firearms has proven over and over again to be the only sure bet defense against armed criminal thugs, terrorists and insurgents.
Thank you for all your kind words and well wishes. Now let me thank all of you at OFCC so much for all you do in helping us to preserve our rights back at home. We can build the strongest armies in the world, but self-defense starts at home. Building a new future for the rest of the world means nothing if Americans lose their freedoms, and you people are on the front line of preserving those freedoms everyday. My hats off to you [all].
Sincerely,
Anthony Walls
