Baus During oral arguments last month on a case challenging the City of Clyde's ban on concealed carry in its public parks, Republican Paul Pfeifer proved himself dangerously out of touch.

Op-Ed: The Democrats and Gun Control

12:05am Thursday, May 01, 2008

By David Kopel Imagine an election race of Pat Robertson versus James Dobson, each of them appearing at organic grocery stores and Starbucks throughout Massachusetts, with each candidate insisting that he alone deserves the vote of gay-marriage advocates.

Op-Ed: City of Chicago misfires on gun violence

12:05am Wednesday, April 30, 2008

Armed citizen dials 911 and waits...and waits...and waits...

12:15am Monday, April 28, 2008

By Chad D. Baus Gun ban extremists and others who oppose the right of self defense are fond of saying that when a person is in danger, the best thing to do is to call 911 and let the police take care of it. But what happens when you dial 911 and the police tell you to wait...and wait...and wait? One Columbus-area business owner was wise enough to have made his own plans for that very eventuality...
