Perfect Storm for Gun Owners: Ohio Presidential Primary edition

12:10am Monday, February 25, 2008
By Chad D. Baus My story " Perfect storm for gun owners? McCain, DeWine and Giuliani join forces ", was published at BuckeyeFirearms.org only a little more than 24 hours after the outcome of Super Tuesday was known. In that commentary, I wrote about how anti-gun former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani's endorsement of Senator John McCain , and anti-gun former Senator Mike DeWine's work as McCain's...

Editorial: Allow concealed carry

12:10am Thursday, February 21, 2008
February 16, 2008 Dover-New Philadelphia Times-Reporter It’s time we allow concealed carry on America’s university campuses. Maybe an armed, well-trained professor might have been able to stop the graduate student who went on a shooting rampage Thursday in a Northern Illinois University lecture hall, killing six and wounded 15 before turning the gun on himself.

12:05am Monday, February 18, 2008
By Tim Inwood In April 2007 we saw the worst school shooting in American history. Students were lined up against the wall and shot to death like cattle at Virginia Tech. These scholars stood meekly and could do nothing to fight back, as school policy had disarmed them and for obeying this idiotic rule they died.
