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.
Our press release follows.

A recent article in the Marietta Times covered the proposed changes to Ohio law (SB239 and HB203) that would make it legal for a person who has a concealed carry license to carry their firearm into any place that serves food even if they serve liquor (HB203) or any place that serves liquor (SB239) as long as the permit holder isn't drinking.

As the article points out, The Ohio restaurant association and Fraternal Order of Police have come out against the proposed changes. The Buckeye State Sheriff's Association has as well. But why?

They claim it is a "bad idea" and warm about "mixing guns and alcohol." Yet approximately 40 states, including every single state surrounding Ohio, have some provision in their law for carrying guns in places where alcohol is served. Nobody can explain why there would be a problem here when there aren't problems in those states.
