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 has learned that a number of anti-gun officials will be presenting a "forum" on "reducing gun violence" on October 10th at the Akron-Summit Public Library. One has to wonder just how much of the solution will be based on banning guns and enacting restrictions on otherwise lawful gun owners.

The presentation appears to include Toby Hoover, whose Ohio Coalition Against Gun Violence (funded by the Joyce Foundation) will supposedly be speaking. A number of people from Ohioans For Concealed Carry have been discussing attending the event to hear what the speakers have to say.

Meetings held in public library facilities may not limit attendance. If you live in the area we encourage you to attend to hear what "the other side" has to say about your right to bear arms and how to solve so called "gun violence" today. Remember, we are attending to watch, not to disrupt

Ohioans For Concealed Carry is considering a Meet & Greet to follow in Downtown Akron. Location is to be determined.

For more information from those of us considering attending or to arrange car-pooling see this discussion in the OhioCCWForums.org.
