Plain Dealer LTEs: Guns in the wrongs hands - and the right ones

12:05am Thursday, May 10, 2007
The Cleveland Plain Dealer has published several letters to the editor in response to its April 29 story entitled "Gun advocates: Statistics are inadequate" and to the continued discussion over the latest Ohio CHL-holder to defend his own life when attacked. Getting to the source of delinquents' angst? I see very little difference between the young criminal who was recently killed in Mount...

Note to Blade's Dan Simpson: There are some more Amendments after the First

12:05am Wednesday, May 02, 2007
The Toledo Blade has published a number of pro-gun letters in response to editorial board member Dan Simpson's recent tirade against the United States Constitution. Click 'Read More' for the letters, including two the Blade refused to print. Did columnist forget about Constitution? Having just read Dan Simpson's April 25 column on the disarming of America, I can only think of one question: Where...

Plain Dealer: Gun advocates say assaults are thwarted, but not reported

12:10am Tuesday, May 01, 2007
In the fallout from an erroneous Cleveland Plain Dealer story claiming that the death of an armed robber at the hand of the concealed handgun licenseholder he attacked was "what appears to be the first time", Cleveland Plain Dealer reporter Michael O'Malley spent time late last week discussing the facts with Buckeye Firearms Association's Chairman and Vice Chairman. He published a follow-up story...

Letters to Plain Dealer editor continue to pour in

12:05am Tuesday, May 01, 2007
Last week, Plain Dealer columnist Regina Brett wrote that she had received more than 400 letters in response to a column defending a concealed handgun license-holder who was forced to shoot a 15 year-old armed robber. The Plain Dealer published a few of those letters along with Brett's column. Two days later, on Sunday, April 29, many more letters on the subject were published. While Brett's...

Plain Dealer letter-writers let 'em have it

2:00pm Friday, April 27, 2007
Readers passionate about shooting By Regina Brett April 27, 2007 Off. The. Scale. The reaction to the shooting of 15-year-old Arthur Buford has everyone up in arms. More than 400 readers told me Damon Wells had every right to shoot and kill Buford. Only 20 disagreed. Wells was not sitting on his porch when he was attacked, as I wrote Wednesday. He was returning from the store and walking across...

Toledo Blade editorial board member tirade: This explains everything

1:39pm Thursday, April 26, 2007
Now that Toledo Blade editorial board member Dan Simpson has written his "The disarming of America" tirade, we guess you'd call it ("rant" probably being too mild, and more accurate words being inappropriate to print), we can finally understand some of the anti-gun editorials that the Blade has spewed over the past 3-4 years. Thanks to NBC's sick attempt to lift their dismal ratings, we've all...

10:49am Thursday, April 26, 2007
In the wake of having been notified by Buckeye Firearms Association that three news stories in the past week have contained significant errors, the Cleveland Plain Dealer has thus far refused to answer to the Indictment of Cleveland Plain Dealer - Violation of Journalist Code of Ethics .

VT Roundabout: 26 Beautiful Stories on the VT Massacre, and Three Ugly Ones

12:05am Thursday, April 26, 2007
The typical BuckeyeFirearms.org's "Pro-Gun Punditry: Buckeye State Roundabout" notes that there are many more stories pertaining to our gun rights in Ohio than we could draw attention to with individual daily commentary, but that they are all worthy of mention. This past week, the same can be said for commentary on the Virginia Tech massacre. Click 'Read More' for this special edition, Wednesday'...
