Anti-Taft Protest
PRESS RELEASE

Thursday, OCTOBER 30th at 11:00 a.m. Hyatt Regency 350 N. High St.

WHAT:  Local organizers in Columbus Ohio will protest to show the
Republican National Committee and the Bush Campaign that Ohioan?s are
no longer being represented by Governor Bob Taft or some members of
the Ohio Senate Republican Caucus.

WHY:  Governor Taft?s continued efforts to block the legislative
process, override the will of the people and deny Ohioans the right
to self defense is in direct conflict with President Bush?s own
record on self-defense in Texas and in foreign policy. Taft and
certain Republicans who refuse to commit to a veto-override leave
Ohioans defenseless against violent attack.  This protest is intended
demonstrate that Ohio Republican politics are hurting President
Bush?s re-election chances in Ohio, because his base has become so
disillusioned by Taft?s record on taxes and Second Amendment rights.
If concealed carry legislative reform does not take place in Ohio
prior to the 2004 Presidential election, concealed carry proponents
believe Ohio Republicans will do serious damage to President Bush?s
reelection chances.


WHERE & WHEN:

Thursday, October 30, 2003:

11:00 p.m.

Hyatt Regency 350 N. High St
Staging area: TBA.

Doubt I can make it, but wanted to let you know that you've got two conflicting times listed.  11:00 AM and PM.  

Also, why the Hyatt?  Is there something going on there that will make people heard?  

Taft is a fuckhead, though.  I think we can all agree on that.  At this rate, open carry will be more accepted as a norm before we get CCW in the Buckeye state.
