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.

Customer Stabbed At Drive-Through Window


Commentary by Larry S. Moore, OFCC Senate District 10 Coordinator:

WHIO TV, Channel 7 Dayton, is reporting that a customer at a Taco Bell drive thru was stabbed. We only report Taco Bell because that is where this incident happened. It could happen at any drive thru in any town. WHIO reports customers as saying "it's a frightening crime, considering you are sort of captive in a drive thru line." Well Capt. Born, what about just driving off while in line? Like this man found it, when there is no place to run things can get ugly in a hurry. Fortunately the attacks were stopped by an off duty Montgomery County Deputy. The attacks could have just as easily been stopped by an armed citizen prepared for self-defense.

Even though Ohio's concealed carry law is over one year old, there are a lot of people who just haven't given thought to the fact of life in today's society - be prepared to defend yourself or become a victim. Through years of effort dedicated Ohioans who wanted concealed carry finally prevailed in the Ohio General Assembly. The way has been paved for others. What are you waiting for?

There is no food from a drive thru that is "to die for".
