Dayton Daily News story highlights reasons why HB296 is so important

12:10am Wednesday, October 26, 2005
Commentary by Larry S. Moore The Dayton Daily News recently published a touching story on the strong parent-child bonding time that occurs each year during hunting season, and it is apparent from the story that Ohioans should support the opportunity for such bonding to be increased through HB296. From the story: Logan Murray is an 8-year-old who knows what he wants. He wants to go hunting with...

No real reason: Toledo Blade opposes firearms law reform bill

8:34am Monday, October 24, 2005
When one first learned of some of the sweeping changes proposed in Rep. Jim Aslanides' firearms law reform bill, House bill 347, it would have been logical to predict that establishment media opposition would come on language which would make all firearms laws in the state uniform, or language which would redefine what constitutes a "loaded" firearm in a motor vehicle. On the other hand, the...

LTE: Shooting blanks with factless anti-gun letter

12:15am Friday, October 21, 2005
On Tuesday, the Cleveland Plain Dealer published a letter to the editor from gun ban extremist Rosie Craig, in which she asserted that gun control was working to control gun crime in Canada. That kind of outrageous claim deserved a reply, and on Thursday the Plain Dealer published it: October 20, 2005 Cleveland Plain Dealer What was she thinking? In her Oct. 18 letter, "It's hard to discern gun...

Plain Dealer's Brent Larkin on HB347 editorial: 'We were wrong'

12:05am Monday, October 17, 2005
After waiting more than three weeks, the Cleveland Plain Dealer editorial board finally chose Saturday October 15 to publish a correction to glaring falsehoods repeated in a September 29 editorial about how House Bill 347, Rep. Jim Aslanides' sweeping firearms law reform bill, would amend the media access loophole. What they did not do, however, is retract their opposition to HB347, even though...

(Uh) Oh, Canada...: ''Gun killings on rise for 3rd year in a row''

12:05am Saturday, October 15, 2005
Canada sees 12 per cent spike in homicide rate - 172 of 622 slayings were firearm-related in 2004 The Toronto Star is reporting news that will no doubt shake the gun ban community even more than recent crime explosions in Great Britain and Australia have. Despite (or perhaps more accurately as a result of) a multitude of gun control laws, and a $2-billion gun registry program that is by all...

Ten days and counting: No correction of erroneous Plain Dealer editorial

7:30am Monday, October 10, 2005
By Chad D. Baus There have been ten issues of the Cleveland Plain Dealer (and ten opportunities to correct glaring falsehoods repeated in a September 29 editorial about how House Bill 347, Rep. Jim Aslanides' sweeping firearms law reform bill, would amend the media access loophole) since editorial page editor Brent Larkin told Buckeye Firearms Association "if there is an error in the story, I...

If Canadian criminals are smart enough, so are Ohio's

12:05am Friday, September 30, 2005
In its October 2005 issue, America's 1st Freedom magazine is reporting that Canadian MP Garry Brietkreuz has reason to believe that the country's $2 billion gun registry debacle is being used by criminals to target potential burglaries. From the story: "We know from reports to our office by individual firearms owners (particularly owners of registered handguns) that there may be as many as 19...

Plain Dealer editorial repeats lies about Ohio's firearms law reform bill

3:42pm Thursday, September 29, 2005
The mainstream media's blind commitment to opposing any gun rights legislation is giving a whole new meaning to the word BLIND. On Friday September 16, the Associated Press botched a story it published after we broke the news that Rep.
