The following letter to the editor of the Toledo Blade was published on June 30, 2015: Your June 24 editorial “Firearms and forgiveness” is not only wrong in its opinion, but also is wrong in fact. Sadly, the House State Government Committee removed places of worship from the bill you cite more than two weeks before you published your editorial.
