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

Masked gunman robs Subway shop

The Akron Beacon-Journal is reporting that a gunman robbed a Romig Road Subway shop Thursday evening. A man who entered the restaurant around 7:15 p.m. displayed a handgun, told employees to get on the floor, took cash and fled on foot. Police told the newspaper the robbery was similar to the Tuesday holdup of the Long John Silver's restaurant at 2520 Romig Road.
Whether or not this Akron store had posted such signs, this incident should show the other Subway stores on the Do Not Patronize While Armed list just how much they are endangering their employees and customers.
These Subway managers need to hear about the tragedies which became known as the Captain D's murders in Tennessee, after that restaurant chain made a move to ban firearms. They need to hear about the experience of Dr. Suzanna Gratia-Hupp (now a Texas State Representative), who was forced to watch her parents lives be taken (along with 21 others) in the Luby's Restaurant rampage shooting in Kileen, TX because she was required to leave her firearm in her car.
There are more armed robbers out there. If you are in a restaurant like one of those listed above when they arrive, what could you possibly do about it?
