Buckeye Firearm’s Chairman, Jim Irvine, is fond of saying that all politicians are not the same, despite people’s belief to the contrary. As proof that not all politicians are the same, Buckeye Firearms Association has set up interviews with pro-gun legislators, and other elected officials who believe strongly in the right to bear arms.

Thankfully, our current governor, Ted Strickland, is a strong supporter of self-defense and sporting rights, including his strong belief that guns are one of the best tools law-abiding citizens can utilize for self-defense.

Recently, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Governor Strickland in his Statehouse office.

The Sandusky Register has been extremely stingy on the number of letters to the editor published in response to its privacy-invading actions. But to date, each and every letter published has been supportive of gun owners.

Does anyone believe The Register would be holding back letters supporting their position if they were receiving them?

The following three letters appeared in the Thursday, July 5 edition of the newspaper, and are notable in that all three were written by women who, judging solely by the content of their letters, are NOT concealed handgun license-holders. These letters prove it isn't only gun owners who are outraged by the actions of the Sandusky Register editor Matt Westerhold, who is maintaining a confidential list of Ohio CHL-holders in five northern Ohio counties on the paper's website.

On the wrong side

Privacy vs. Democracy. The editor of the Sandusky Register seems to be
on the wrong side.

I believe in the privacy of a person. But apparently the editor of the
Sandusky Register does not.

Matt Westerhold needs to look at the crime in these Ohio counties.

The conceal carry permit holders are law abiding citizens. They have had
criminal background checks and training.

Since you printed the names of the conceal carry permit holders, you are
putting them and their families in danger of theft or, maybe, for their
lives. How will you feel when someone has to lose their life over your
decision to print their names?

For a long time, many, many Americans have believed that Liberalism is a mental disorder. Savage wrote a book on it. I wrote a book on it. Dr. Laura has commented on excess baggage messing up relationships. Lots of authors have noticed, and correctly, I believe, that there is a marked difference between the origins of conservative values and origins of liberal values, that difference being that conservatives are more mature and liberals are more adolescent. (Which explains the double-standard: the liberals view themselves as teens to be tolerated and view conservatives as adults to be accountable, or adult.)

Americans believe this because, and this is one of the features of many impairments, Liberals seem to be out of touch with reality.

Americans are just as perceptive as always, sensing when someone is a little ‘pixilated’, out of kilter or otherwise impaired so. [We can say most Americans since we know how so-called extremist values are actually Mainstream values. I give Talkradio a great deal of credit for that, because Talkradio is a medium where people can compare notes in real time.]

Reality distortion devices erected by an impaired person in order to cope are common, but when they enter the political arena and begin to formulate policy – even insist on it – they are operating on a great deal of personal misinformation input.

In this, I say that Liberals have not assimilated.
