Two more die behind a "no guns" sign

by Jim Irvine There was a double murder on Friday at Park-Ohio in Cleveland. The business has "no guns" signs posted, but as we have seen demonstrated many times, killers do not obey the signs. The victims always obey them, and are dead. Maybe that was part of the killer's plans. The accused killer was a former employee. He knew company policy and protocol. He likely knew of the "no guns" signs...

Op-Ed: Medical Journal Bias on Guns

by John Lott, Jr. Medical journals are not always the objective, purely scientific publications we might think that they are.

Cleveland clings to gun control until the bitter end

by Ken Hanson, Esq. On October 12, 2010, the Ohio Supreme Court heard oral arguments in Cleveland's challenge to the constitutionality of R.C. 9.68. R.C. 9.68 is the provision of Ohio law generally referred to as Ohio's preemption law, which was implemented over Governor Taft's veto of House Bill 347.
