Former anti-gun Representative completes firearms instruction course

It isn't often that a politician admits he was wrong. It is even less often that a politician acts on his new convictions so immediately and publicly as has Rep. Michael DeBose (D - Cleveland) in the weeks since he was made victim by armed criminals in an attempted mugging last month.

Buckeye Firearms Association is pleased to report that on June 8th and 9th, Rep. Debose, his wife and 10 neighbors/members of his church attended
firearms training.

Buckeye Firearms Association Endorses HB264/SB184; Castle Doctrine Legislation

Buckeye Firearms Association is proud to endorse Castle Doctrine legislation unveiled today by Senator Steve Buehrer (R-Delta) and Representative Lynn Wachtmann (R- Napoleon.) The Legislation introduced in the Senate as SB184 and in the House as HB264, reflects the input and hard work of many different “stake-holders” prior to introduction.

Anti-gun zealots will label this Bill a “license to murder” or “shoot first” law, as they have done in other states which have considered or adopted self-defense reform. A simple reading of this three page Bill (which can be downloaded in .pdf here or here) shows these obstructionists are lying about the content of the Bill.

This legislation is about protecting crime victims and restoring the presumption of innocence to those forced to act in self-defense.
