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.

OFCC At Gun Rights Policy Conference
- Published on Tuesday, 19 September 2006 13:18
- Written by Jeff Garvas
This year the GRPC will be action-packed. With over 50 speakers hand-picked from the leadership of the Gun Rights Movement, the topics to be presented promise to have an impact that will help direct the path of our cause for years to come. The GRPC will be held this weekend, September 22, 23 and 24, 2006 at the Renaissance Charlotte Suites Hotel in Charlotte, North Carolina.
Scheduled and invited speakers this year include Attorney Daniel Ellis, who is attending on behalf of Ohioans For Concealed Carry. Mr. Ellis represents Ohioans For Concealed Carry in the Clyde issue and will be involved in our efforts to appeal to the Sixth District Appellate Court and take Clyde to the Ohio Supreme Court, possibly joined with the Bruce Beatty case. Mr. Ellis is also representing Mr. Dan Sayers in Oregon, OH.
Mr. Ellis will be speaking at 9:45 a.m. on Saturday in the Renaissance Ballroom as one of four panelists on the State Legislative Affairs Briefing. Mr. Ellis is familiar with HB347, Ohio's Concealed Carry reform and statewide pre-emption bill, and has contributed to its drafting process.
The Gun Rights Policy Conference is by far one of the best sources of information for gun rights activists, and the best part is that it is completely free to attend the conference. More information on the conference and hotel rooms is provided below.
As in the past, the Second Amendment Foundation will not only pick up the tab for lunch and snacks, but will also provide more than $125 worth of vital pro-gun rights materials to each attendee.
In addition to the luncheon and free materials, you will have the opportunity to chat with the speakers at the two evening NSSF and NRA planned receptions.
This event is so important to our cause, that the SAF Board of Trustees has elected to help underwrite the entire cost of the event. Your cost to attend this event is absolutely free!
