There are more stories pertaining to our gun rights in Ohio then we can possibly draw attention to with individual daily commentary. But they are all worthy of mention.

What follows is our review of headlines from around the state though a pro-gun rights lens.

From guns stolen from a flea market to police departments trading old confiscated guns for equipment, these articles should be a part of your required reading!

What follows is several days of headlines accompanied by short, concise pro-gun analysis.

The 111th Congress got off to a predictable start on January 6 with the swearing in of the many new members and the introduction of a few pieces of legislation, including one of the most draconian gun control bills to be offered in years.

No sooner were the new members of Congress sworn in than Representative Bobby Rush (D-IL), a former Black Panther leader, filed a bill, H.R. 45, which he calls the "Blair Holt's Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009". The bill was introduced with no cosponsors and was automatically referred to the House Judiciary Committee where, under normal circumstances, it would remain and where it would die, but the new congressional paradigm is far from normal and anything could happen.

Brady Gun Ban Plan: I have obtained the complete 16-page plan sent to Obama's transition team, with 26 specific "requests," posted here: http://www.buckeyefirearms.org/node/6383

So where's the pro-rights proposal? If the gun-rights community doesn't offer suggestions, all we can do is react defensively -- what a terrible strategy! He'll be our president (and its our Congress) too, for better or worse.

We need to issue "requests" for: tax breaks for marksmanship training and range time; jail time for people who infringe on Second Amendment rights or discriminate against gun owners (civil-rights denial is a felony); High School Marksmanship Programs http://www.gunlaws.com/HighSchoolMarksmanship.htm; repeal of discreet-carry bans; a special award for armed survivors of criminal assaults... and how about ammo stamps for the poor so they can practice too? See dozens of clever suggestions here http://www.gunlaws.com/sunshin.htm (OK, so maybe field-stripping battle rifles grades K thru 12 goes a bit far) and call on your gun-rights group to draft a formal proposal on letterhead for Mr. Obama now. Don't forget to announce it to your "news" outlets. Submit proposals: http://change.gov/open_government/yourseatatthetable
