If you live anywhere near Cuyahoga County (Cleveland) you're familiar with the fact that the Berea Gun Show, which was put on by Dick Walters, was "kicked out" of the fairgrounds by not being permitted to renew their contract. It all started when the Cuyahoga County Commissioners said on live radio that they would get rid of it, and it happened. The facilities are "leased" or rented from the County by the local Agricultural Society who in turn lends the space out by contract to various shows. The Gun Show was one of them. Recently the two sides sat down and tried to come to a comrpomise, which included a written agreement to bring the gun show back. That is, until the County Commissioners offered 1.3 million dollars of your tax money to the fairgrounds for "renovations". (read more) |

Utah Legislators pass reciprocity bill. The bill provides 60 days of reciprocity to all out-of-state visitors. After that time, visitors must apply for a Utah CCW permit. The bill would recognize concealed-weapon permits from every state except Vermont.
Read the article here Note: The way I read this, it has no impact on Ohioans until we pass a bill of our own... -jeff |

This associated press story on the Plain Dealer Website has no real relationship to firearms in any way. Maybe it's time the State of Ohio require a 5-day waiting period on Michael Jordan shoes like this. Purchasers will need to fill out a form and have a backround check performed on them. If it's found that they have ever been involved in a "shoe buying frenzy" their purchase will be refused. Then, we'll need to proceed to sue the manufacturer, Nike and Michael Jordan, for producing such a "dangerous product" that places the public mall shopper in danger. Maybe, if we're lucky, we can bankrupt them out of business with frivilous lawsuits. (Sorry, it's a slow news day :-) |

An article in today’s (27 Feb 2001) Plain Dealer says that Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell will not accept a job in Washington D.C. as was previously believed. He will, instead, begin working on a plan to run for Governor in 2006.
Mr. Blackwell is a strong supporter of the Right to Keep and Bear Arms and would be a fine governor. I only wish we didn’t have to wait until 2006 for him to run. Read the entire story in the Plain Dealer
