Ohio Newspaper Breaks the Law in Publishing Conceal Carry Permit Holders

Sandusky Register Conceal Carry ListAn Ohio newspaper, the Sandusky Register, published a list on their online website in 2007 revealing the names of Sandusky conceal and carry permit holders. Though at this time their website states that “The decision to make the lists available to readers was made by the Register’s managing editor” (at this time the managing editor is Karen Mork (on-line editor) and Dan Angelo (editor) but all inquiries are to be directed to Matt Westerhold). The Sandusky Register on June 6th, 2007 wrote the Ottowa County Sheriff Robert L Bratton requesting the list in the name of public interest. You can view their letter request at http://www.ottawacountysheriff.org/documents/Sandusky%20Register%20request%20for%20CCW%20Information.pdf). The newspaper decided to post this information online clearly in utter disregard for the law. Ohio Revised Code 2923.129 Section B states the following:

(2)(a) A journalist, on or after April 8, 2004, may submit to a sheriff a signed, written request to view the name, county of residence, and date of birth of each person to whom the sheriff has issued a license or replacement license to carry a concealed handgun, renewed a license to carry a concealed handgun, or issued a temporary

Help-wanted ads are appearing on Craigslist that offer to pay citizens $24,000 a year, plus health insurance, to “counter the hysteria and lies of Glenn Beck and other talking heads” and “stop the tea-baggers!” The ads are being posted by Grassroots Campaigns, a for-profit canvassing group that has performed services for the Democratic National Committee and MoveOn.org. Its postings can be found among Craiglist listings in Chicago, Ill.; San Francisco, Calif.; Boston, Mass.; Philadelphia, Penn. and Austin, Texas.

“Whose agenda will win in 2010?” the ad asks. “You decide.”

Administration considers forcing investors into Treasury debt

Written by Jerome R Corsi © 2010 WorldNetDaily

The Obama administration appears to have come up with a novel way of financing trillion-dollar budget deficits – demanding IRA and 401(k) holders buy trillions of dollars in Treasury bonds.

With the Treasury needing this year to see another $1 trillion in debt to finance the anticipated federal budget deficit, and the Federal Reserve about to discontinue its 2009 program of buying Treasury bonds for the Fed’s asset portfolio, the Obama administration is scrambling to find ways to sell government debt without having to raise interest rates.

Wall Street’s Stranglehold on the Economy Is Choking Americans

By Shah Gilani, Contributing Editor, Money Morning

America’s Founding Fathers were afraid of any concentration of power in the republic. They were particularly afraid that banking interests could hijack our fledgling democracy.

And yet today, 234 years later, our Founding Fathers’ worst fears have come true. Wall Street stranglehold on the economy threatens our very prosperity, and the future of a truly democratic republic.

Precinct Committeeman: Most Powerful Office in the World

If you are tired of seeing things continue to go down the drain, you must understand how liberals dominate our government. You must understand the seven laws of American government:

1. If you want to change things, change the laws. Remember all the nonsense we learned in school about “Coequal Branches of Government”? Actually the Founding Fathers made Congress far and away the most powerful branch because it was “closest to the people.”

Agape in action

There are many people who choose to serve the Lord Jesus Christ with their gifts and talent every day of their lives but when a disaster strikes sometimes they get some much deserved credit. I have recently received an e-mail from a reader of the Ohio Free Press site and a request to post something about the relief efforts taking place in Haiti.

Waiting for Democrats

The state could use an improved way for drawing legislative districts. Will the Ohio House deliver on the necessary constitutional amendment?

Voters often complain about unresponsive government. Then why not give them the opportunity to elect representatives more likely to cross party lines to reach sensible compromises? That’s the essential goal of a proposed constitutional amendment that would improve the way legislative and congressional districts are redrawn in Ohio.

A Victory for the Muslim Brotherhood January 20, 2010 6:58 PM

In a controversial move, the Obama administration has decided to lift Tariq Ramadan’s ban from the United States. Who is Tariq Ramadan? By birth, he is the grandson of Hassan al Banna – the founder of the Muslim Brotherhood (MB). By word and deed, he is today a leading member of the European branch of the MB.

Ohio 18 web launch

A coalition of several non-partisan grassroots groups is gearing up to help citizens to become informed about the candidates in the upcoming 18th District Congressional race. In November, the office for the 18th US Congressional District, currently held by Democrat Zack Space, will be up for election. “We want to bring out all of the candidates–including Zack Space– so that the people can make an informed decision,” says Jason Mihalick, an Ohio Liberty Council Board Member. “We are finding more every day that folks want to be involved and they want to know more about who they are voting for and why. These Candidate Nights will give everyone a prime opportunity to learn about the people they’ll be seeing on the ballot, and what those people plan to do if they are elected.”
