DESPERATE: Gun ban lobby heralds law-breaking by government officials
As more and more city bureaucrats "wake up" to the fact that Section 9 prohibits them from creating new victim zones, and preempts the existence of old ones, what was once a whine has grown into a full-blown howl.
In what has become an all too common tactic, the gun ban lobby is once again encouraging law-breaking when their efforts to pass gun control laws or prevent self-defense laws fail.
By contrast, in all the years of debate over passage of concealed carry reform did self-defense rights groups have NEVER recommended that gun owners break the law. Instead, we worked to change the law.
In their time of desperation, it is clear that these extremists will stoop to any level - even to heralding government officials who knowingly, willingly break the law and violate their oath of office.

According to the Columbus Dispatch,
Ohio Attorney General Jim Petro has said his take on it is that the prohibition applies only indoors on government land.
Letters to Section 9 violators from OFCC's legal counsel are still going out, and further action will be taken with any entities that continue to violate the law, even after they can no longer claim ignorance.
