2012 - The Year In Review

7:00am Monday, December 31, 2012

By Chad D. Baus While there is far too much to cover in a single article, we reflect on some of the important events of 2012. January: The year begins with continued debate over whether or not Canton police officer Daniel Harless, who was caught on dash-cam video verbally assaulting and threatening to "execute" a concealed handgun licensee, deserved to be fired. Harless is terminated, and the...

Who Will Stand For Our Children? Voluntary Armed Parents in Schools

3:00pm Friday, December 28, 2012

by Ron Borsch INTRODUCTION AND DEFINING THE PROBLEM It is important for us to first understand the "Rapid Mass Murder"© problem, the most common motivation of these active killers, how we can reduce the copycat effect, ( http://www.lorencoleman.com/copycateffect/ ), as well as the number of these incidents and then look at the "Final Option" of armed intervention.

OOPS: In rant calling for magazine ban, NBC's David Gregory demonstrates why gun control laws don't work

by Chad D. Baus In the days since the latest horrific mass murder in a "no-guns" zone, the media onslaught has been relentless. Never mind that Connecticut already has some of the strictest gun control laws in the country, including an "assault" weapons ban - the media say more such laws are what is needed.

Around the country, gun owners stop potential mass murder; Here in Ohio, more violence in places where guns are banned

7:00am Thursday, December 27, 2012

by Chad D. Baus Nearly two weeks later, the nation is talking about the horrific deaths in a "gun-free" zone in Connecticut. In their arguments for the creation of more and more "no-guns" zones (more appropriately termed "victim zones"), gun rights opponents like to make claims such as college students having a "right to a gun-free" campus, and that the public has a "right to know" who has a gun...

Amidst Tragedy, Logic and Reason Must Prevail

3:00pm Wednesday, December 26, 2012

by Tim Inwood Like all of you I was reeling for days over the horror of what happened in Newtown, Connecticut. The victims for the most part were so young, so innocent.

by Jim Irvine The sorrow over the killing of 27 people, including 20 elementary school children, in Newtown, Connecticut has started to change to anger. Typically, pro-gun and anti-gun forces are digging in their heels for the fight ahead. But we owe it to those children and their families to learn from the failures that allowed so many innocent people to be slaughtered. President Obama stated...
