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 Read the Full Story

Ohioans For Concealed Carry is proud to announce that we have exceeded our initial fund raising goal in the Dan Sayers Legal Defense Fund. Those who read this website regularly may recall that we challenged you to donate $2500 to the fund in an effort to help Dan Sayers obtain competent legal representation. (History: The Dan Sayers History)

Less than three months into the project, and thanks to contributions we've received online, in the mail, and in person at public events such as our picnic those of you who contributed have exceeded what we asked you to help us raise for this cause.

Since your contributions met and exceeded the $2500 goal we are thrilled to announce that Ohioans For Concealed Carry's dollar for dollar match will result in more than five thousand dollars going towards the defense fund.

This is amazing news and those of you who helped raise these funds should be proud to be a part of a just cause. If the grassroots gun owners of Ohio didn't care enough about these issues to support people they've never met we would all suffer the consequences of anti-gun extremists and those few police officers who would sooner ignore your rights because "guns are bad" in their world.

Sadly, we need your help to continue donations to the Dan Sayers Legal Defense Fund. Even with $5120 in funds destined to pay bills, it is OFCC's belief that the costs will exceed that which we've raised on Dan Sayers' behalf. We need those of you who have already donated to tap your friends on the shoulder and ask them what they would do if they found themselves in Dan Sayers position. Then get them to donate to this fund online TODAY. Right here: on our secure webstore (all transactions are encrypted) Donations begin at $10 and can be raised in $10 increments at the bottom of the page.

Today we're also thrilled to bring additional court documents that were filed in the case. These were recently filed by Dan Sayers' attorney in the Oregon Municipal Courts:

Motion To Reconsider
