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.

Woman carjacked at ''no-guns'' workplace


Toledo's 13 Action News (ABC) is reporting that an employee of Ohio-based Owens-Corning was getting something out of her trunk in the company parking lot in downtown Toledo Friday when a man with a gun hit her, took her keys and car.

From the story:

    A woman was carjacked in broad day light at work. Police say it happened at the parking lot of Owens Corning around ten this morning in downtown Toledo. Detectives say that a woman was getting something out of her trunk when a man with a gun hit her, took her keys and car. An hour later police believe the same suspect may also have robbed the Charter One Bank on Glendale and Byrne. The suspect is still on the loose. He was last seen in the woman's Dodge Stratus.
Ohio law may give this corporation immunity from civil liability for enforcing a policy which renders workers like this poor woman defenseless, but they can never, ever escape their moral responsibility.

Contact information for Owens Corning and other dangerous locations is available on OFCC's Do Not Patronize While Armed database.
