From the recent school shootings right to anti-gun hysteria.Geauga just had one of our local "gun enablers" elected county commissioner.Raplh Spidialiri owner of Great Lakes outdoor Supply.

Can we proclaim the Plain Dealer a "slander and misinformation enabler?"

You know, it's weird but, I don't even get angry anymore when I read stuff like that. I think the offended/outraged/righteous indignation part of my brain is worn out... :roll: I just read these "articles", as they are often called, roll my eyes and say 'whatever'. I don't think there's anything that can be said to people like that. I'm not sure where I would even start if I were to pen a response.

Honestly, I'm not even concerned about people like that. They can't be convinced, reasoned with, debated with (i.e. CSGV FB page), there is no argument that will trump their emotion based opinions, world views, and decision making.

This article actually made me feel good about the county I live in.The shootings at Chardon High was indeed a terrible thing but all in all Geauga Cty is a great place to live and work.Just about everything mentioned in this article is a positive thing to me.

Glad to hear that Scot Weber at http://www.gunrunnerauctions.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; is doing 2-3 million a year in firearm sales.That former senator Grendell has been appointed to the common pleas bench and that Ralph Spidiliari of Great Lakes was just elected County Commissioner.

I never realized that firearms in our county out numbered vehicles by 5:1 but instead of gasping in shock at this I think it's great knowing so many of my neighbors are armed and willing.20:1 would be better.

During the aftermath of the shooting at CHS everybody made such a big deal about how their disaster preparedness plan that had been practiced had worked so well.Well,it didn't work at all.3 students died and LE reaction time was good but at best they arrived after the event.Can't help but wonder if armed teachers and or parents couldn't have provided on the spot action as opposed to reaction?

The PD also mentioned yesterday that firearms and ammo sales are starting to climb rapidly. As we approach the next election I can't help but remember how it was 4 years ago.Empty gun cases and sold out ammo shelves.Time to stock up is now.

Wow - you have some grade A whack-jobs up in your neck of the woods. The comments were bizzar to say the least.

On the plus side, we've been slapping the author and his supporters around pretty well in the comments section. The proof of this is the number of pointed comments DELETED. The PD has an interesting habit of allowing attacks against pro-gun posters, but deleting the responses.

I would not lose a minute of sleep if the plain dealer was PERMANTLY DELETED, the only thing i would miss is the coupon's and the sunday add's. If i do buy one it's only on sunday pull the add's out and it is a good source to start the wood burner. :lol:

They've actually gotten better since I moved here in '86... which should tell you just HOW bad they were.

Twenty years ago, somebody called trying to get me to subscribe. I told them I had no interest at all. When they asked me why, I told them the PD wasn't nearly as good as my college newspaper which was the worst COLLEGE newspaper I'd ever seen.

Anyone that looks to the Plain Dealer for fair and unbiased reporting needs to have their head examined.

I agree people do need to lockup their guns, but that won't stop these things from happening. Neither will outlawing guns. Its like me trying to solve me weed problem buy cutting the grass, it might help for a while but they just keep growing back.
