During the talk radio show Fangman was on he lambasted the local government for neglecting law enforcement's needs, passing feel good racial profiling legislation, and then said he is strongly in favor of concealed carry by citizens and hoped that Governor Taft would eventually sign the bill into law. These are the kind of people in Law Enforcement who I support, and not only because of their views on CCW, but because of their common sense views in general.

The Cleveland Plain Dealer's Phillip Morris wrote the following article, Shoot first, fund colleges later, in Tuesday's Cleveland Plain Dealer. The title shows Morris' bias since the Govenor obviously didn't elude to pushing CCW legislation ahead of school funding. But was Taft joking, or does he really not know what CCW stands for? You can email and fax him a letter to remind him.
