200,000 Ohioans Now Have Concealed Handgun Licenses

Ohio --(AmmoLand.com)- On Friday the Ohio Attorney General’s Office Released the 2009 Annual Report on Concealed Handgun Licenses, and the numbers are quite impressive.

By the end of the 2009 calendar year almost 200,000 Ohioans had been issued a license since 2004.

2009 was the single most popular year with over 50,000 new licenses issued. Approximately 28% of licenses issued since the inception of concealed carry in Ohio ocured in 2009. The interest in self-defense has never been stronger in Ohio, following a year of record gun sales nationwide. The news media believes this is a reaction to President Obama’s preceived anti-gun agenda.

This report is really popular in our discussion forums today: http://tiny.cc/aDl5C

Programming now resuming as normal…
Before we get started with this week’s AAR adventure, I would be remiss if I didn’t talk a bit about last weekends show. My in -studio guest “David” was a victim of an attempted armed robbery and because he himself was armed, the robber didn’t get very far. His story was followed up with analysis by Massad Ayoob and attorney John Monroe. The show was incredibly compelling and if you have already made the decision to carry a gun or are even thinking about it, please visit last weeks program at www.armedamericanradio.org, it truly is “must listen” to radio.

California is heating up and I mean like a wildfire. Seems a detective in East Palo Alto made some pretty incendiary comments on a Facebook page about law-abding residents who choose to lawfully open carry and his descriptive’s of what would happen to them by police was nothing short of….well, YOU decide.

I’ll be talking to Mr. John Taylor, who immediately started his own Facebook page calling for the detective to be fired. Also, joining me will be representatives of OpenCarry.org. These guys make no bones about where they fall in the open carry debate and they’ll weigh in on the E. Palo Alto situation.

Also, I’ll be continuing the Grassroots discussions with guests from Nevada Gun Owners and Ohioans for Concealed Carry. Folks, it’s the local grassroots groups in your neck of the woods that are responsible for so many of the freedoms you have. I’ve talked to groups from Iowa, Oregon, Ohio, Virginia, Georgia, and now Nevada and we’ll get to every state that airs AAR in the near future.! During the Roundtable in hour 3 I’ll be joined by Morgan Boatman, George Hill-The Mad Ogre, and Ms. Kathy Jackson!

Speaking of states that air Armed American Radio, I’ll be welcoming a new one this Sunday, California joins the ever growing list! Modesto will be listening this weekend for the first time LIVE so welcome!
