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.
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

In July of 2006, Kansas citizens were able to apply for concealed handgun licenses after that state joined the vast majority of states with concealed carry laws. On January 2, 2007, the first licenses began to be issued.

Like in Ohio, some cities tried to place additional restrictions on where a person would be permitted to carry a firearm for personal protection. After hearing from constituents, two council members in the city of Hutchinson have reversed their intention to take that action.
"The state put together a pretty good law and we ought to try it," [Councilman Ron] Sellers said. "The police chief had no problem with the way it was written. ... People that called me were very polite and very knowledgeable. I think we jumped the gun a little bit."

Democrat Gun Owners Say, "We Want Our Party Back!" PDF Print E-mail

It hasn’t always been easy being a Democrat, even though we recently have been able to elect several very Pro-gun Democrats here in Ohio. Before 1994, we Democrats stood proud of the leaders we helped to elect, but something happened to my party, and I WANT IT BACK! For a short while, I even considered changing my party affiliation, but after enduring several years of Ohio's Governor Taft and Senators DeWine and Voinovich, I think the Republicans need to take their party back as well.

When my party’s leaders took back control of our federal government, they told me they have a plan to keep it. I know they have a plan because they told me so every day by e-mail, radio, and television. They have polls designed to tell me they’re on the right track, and we all know polls always reveal the truth. The truth is… I'm tired! I'm tired of hanging my head in shame. I want my party back!

Supreme Court Denies Beatty v. Toledo Appeal PDF Print E-mail

On Wednesday the Ohio Supreme Court denied an appeal in Beatty v. Toledo, in which Ohioans For Concealed Carry had joined efforts with Mr. Beatty to pursue an appeal of the Sixth District's absurd decision. Many regular readers of our website will recall that the Sixth District Court of Appeals concluded in Beatty that Ohio's concealed carry law is "not a general law" due to the fact that HB12 permits a private property owner to choose if their property is prohibited or not.
