Last week, Buckeye Firearms Association exposed Chairman Chris Redfern and the Ohio Democratic Party financing of two deceptive anti-gun mailers attacking State Representative Ross McGregor's vote for Ohio's Castle Doctrine bill, SB184.

We pointed out that 75 percent of the Ohio General Assembly voted in favor of this law, which ensures Ohioans' right to defend themselves and their children from violent criminals - criminals who don't care about "No Guns" signs. And we pointed out that a majority of Ohio Democratic Party's own caucus members in the House, including Chairman Redfern himself, voted for this popular legislation, and that a supportive Democrat governor, Ted Strickland, enthusiastically signed it into law.

On Sunday, we took our message to the voters in McGregor's House District 72, in the form of an advertisement in Clark County's Springfield News-Sun.

This week, thousands of voters in House District 72 are receiving two gun-related mailers - including one from Buckeye Firearms Association that sets the record straight.

Everyone is focused on John McCain and Barack Obama for President of the United States. But there is another vote that is just as important – your vote for the two Ohio Supreme Court Justice positions.

Supreme Court Justices Evelyn Stratton and Maureen O’Connor are up for election, and need your help. Most people do not know anything about these candidates. In fact, the vast majority of people do not even know who they are. Judges are always tough votes to cast, because people do not know the candidates like other offices, and because on the ballot voters don't even have a party affiliation to go by.

You need to make sure your friends and family know about this race, and the candidates that need support, because no matter what laws are passed in the legislature, they mean nothing without courts that uphold the law.

The Outdoor Wire, an outdoor sports industry resource, is reporting that Barack Obama's prematurely-established 'transition team' is already considering changes to the National Instant Criminal Background Check (NICS) for firearms purchases that would allow gun purchase records to be stored on government servers.
