Earlier this month, Ohioans For Concealed Carry began receiving reports of "no-guns" signs being posted in United Dairy Farmers (UDF) stores in Ohio. An investigation by Business Education Coordinator Joe Eaton discovered the Ohio-based chain had just ordered signs to be posted in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana stores. Although it didn't take long for OFCC supporters to begin responding to the discriminatory signs, OFCC has learned that criminals in Ohio appear to have responded even more rapidly Last week, OFCC reported that FIVE robberies had occured in one week in "no-guns" UDF stores. Today, OFCC can report that two more armed robberies occurred in a single day in Columbus.
