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.

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.

Police said the man wearing dark clothing and a ski mask was waving a handgun when he barged into the Mt. Zion United Methodist Church in the Baltimore suburb of Bel Air. About 50 people were attending the service
In the past we covered the epidemic of places of workship becoming criminal protection zones. In Ohio, HB12 deems every place of worship a "no guns" environment unless local leadership says otherwise. Such a policy is ripe for a potential violent attack.
