Kudos to Jeff Garvas for contacting the Village and dropping OFCC's name. I only mention OFCC when I start explaining about lawsuits, using OFCC v. Clyde as an example. Then, of course, it's only polite to explain who and what OFCC is all about.

Yeah, I scratched my head when I saw that one too - and I especially liked this one:NavyChief wrote:From the article:

"Essentially"? Huh?
Once upon a time being in the news business required knowing when not to use words just for the sake of filling column inches. Oh - and editors actually edited.

Because of where it's filed. Keep in mind all lawsuits like this have to start at the county level. Do you think Franklin County judges want to {inappropriate language} off Columbus? Or Cuyahoga county wants to {inappropriate language} off Cleveland? Keep in mind we are talking about lawsuits over laws. These are the same laws these judge's buddies have been enforcing. So it must be appealed, which is what the status currently is.A_F wrote:how did this city win this against this lawsuit?docachna wrote:Might that be this ????AlanM wrote:What's the current situation in Oberlin?

You have to realize what it is that they "won". As you saw, the article shows that the council DID amend their ordinance.A_F wrote:...

Just like the president's first E.O. on guns this year, it really doesn't matter that they've made something illegal that is already illegal. It shows that they're doing something, that they care.MyWifeSaidYes wrote:You have to realize what it is that they "won".

The current ordinance essentially says, "No illegal guns in the park".
So, what is an "illegal gun".
ETA - Don't answer that. It's already been discussed.
