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.

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.

The Tony Gordon Memorial Award, given to a person who has worked hard for self-defence rights in Ohio, was presented to Jim Aslanides for all of his work on concealed carry reform in Ohio.
A special Lifetime Achievement award was presented to Dennis Walker for all of his hard work fighting for gun rights for the last two decades. Dennis is retiring from Ohio activism and planned to move to Texas just days after the picnic.
This year again saw valuable door prizes being awarded to the picnic attendees. A very special thank you to Gander Mountain, Blackwing Shooting Center, The Powder Room, Lightning Arms, and more for their generous donations (remember to support those who support you!). Prizes included several Surefire flashlights, a couple of shooting bags, pistol cases, a knock-down target rack, gift certificates, and more!
The grand prize was awarded to Gary Reiff, who had a choice of three firearms and chose the 9mm Springfield XD.
OFCC also unveiled the new Firearms Freedom Podcast t-shirt, which will be going on sale later this week. The shirt created quite a buzz, and two were given away as door prizes. Podcast host Dan White also conducted a couple of on-site interviews which will be featured in the next podcast.
All in all, it was a fun and successful day, and many participants said they couldn't wait until next year's event.
