Ohio Democrat gubernatorial candidate Ed FitzGerald's campaign is on the rocks. So much so that last week, just 90 days before the election, typically Democrat-friendly Ohio media outlets like the Cleveland Plain Dealer began openly questioning whether FitzGerald should bow out of the race.

The Violence Policy Center, one of America’s oldest and most conniving Joyce Foundation funded institutions, is this week’s example. Keep in mind that the VPC has called for the banning of all handguns, declared that confusing the public about “assault weapons” is good policy, and even...

Cornered on his ATV by a rampaging maniac in a Northern California suburban cul-de-sac, an armed financial advisor had the legal authority to shoot his attacker in self-defense with the .45 pistol he had in his hand. He didn’t. His story is not unique, but tales like his are vastly underreported. Of the millions of annual instances of self-defense with a firearm (defensive gun use, or DGU) fewer...

by Chad D. Baus

7:00am Thursday, August 07, 2014

The issue of security in places of worship has been near and dear to my heart for as long as Ohio's concealed carry law has been in place.
