Mary Taylor - endorsee for Auditor of State

target="_blank">Mary Taylor has served four years in the Ohio House of Representatives. Her record, both in terms of votes and behind the scenes support is impeccable. She is endorsed by Buckeye Firearms for Auditor of the State of Ohio.

If elected, Mary Taylor would be the first CPA to serve as Auditor of State in Ohio. While the office of Auditor has little to do with firearms, it’s important to understand that the current auditor spoke out against concealed carry before its passage, and tried to use this office as a stepping stone to Governor. Every office is important for gun owners. Mary Taylor is also the best qualified candidate to do the job of Auditor.

Mary Taylor is currently serving her second term in the Ohio House, where she is a member of the House Education and Economic Development and Environment Committees. She previously served on Green City Council, where she and her husband Don have lived for the past 18 years. The Taylor’s have two sons, Joe and Michael, ages 15 and 12.

Terminally ill youth get hunting wish

By Larry S. Moore

The Statesman Journal our of Salem, Oregon has published a great story about a non-profit group called Hunt of a Lifetime:

    After hearing testimony that was emotional, even tearful, the Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission on Friday approved issuing up to 25 free hunting tags to be used by terminally ill youngsters.

    Danny Benson of Klamath Falls, the Oregon ambassador for the non-profit group Hunt of a Lifetime, broke down several times while describing the experiences of one of the two participants in the first such hunts in 2005.

    "His dream was to come out West, preferably Oregon or Wyoming, to hunt mule deer," Benson said in describing Troy Brewer of Pennsylvania. "He found out about Hunt of a Lifetime in October of 2005, turned in his application and was accepted into the program."

We are all familiar with various groups that provide special trips for very ill or terminally ill young people. Many such groups will not include hunting trips in their agenda. It is great to see Hunt of a Lifetime filling that void and making something special happen for these youth. The people involved in this effort certainly deserve a hearty thank you and a gold star in Heaven.
