Editor's Note Nov. 2, 2006: At the time this story was posted, the tests commonly relied upon by the OSHP showed Trooper Joshua Risner to be intoxicated and no news outlets were questioning that "fact". At the request of the OSHP, additional tests not available to the general public were performed on Risner's body, bringing into question the validity of the standard tests. We are continuing to investigate this story and will post updates when warranted.

This political action committee's concern is not and has never been with the integrity of rank and file officers, but rather with the OSHP bureaucracy who continue to lobby against any gun rights legislation benefiting citizens while simultaneously seeking to remove a provisions in the House-passed version of H.B. 347 that applies the same felony to law enforcement officers as that faced by citizens who drive drunk while armed. We would encourage those Troopers who have expressed that they do support concealed carry to get their political leadership to quit making absurd objections to common sense reforms.
