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

Yesterday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R.5013 by a 322-99 margin. This bill would prevent law enforcement agencies from onfiscating firearms during a time of national emergency. Earlier this month, the Senate passed a similar provision in a homeland security funding bill, and numerous states (including Ohio) are either considering or have passed similar legislation. The issue fo firearms confiscations during emergencies leapt to national attention following the actions of officials in New Orleans following Hurricane Katrina last year. The new limitation would apply to federal law enforcement or military officers, along with local police that receive federal funds. Representative Bobby Jindal(R-Louisiana), sponsor of the bill, said firearms seizures after Hurricane Katrina left residents unable to defend themselves. "Many of them were sitting in their homes without power, without water, without communication," he said. "It was literally impossible to pick up a phone and call 911." The bill does allow the Coast Guard to require that people surrender their firearms before boarding a rescue vehicle. Click here for more information. |
