J6 A True Timeline
I looked out to my driveway and my car was gone. I called the cops and they said no problem, we know where it is. The dirty screws said there was currently a rash of reports of missing vehicles. Found out my car had gone to a drive-in movie. By itself. So had everyone else’s ride. Talk about autonomous vehicles. Sure they’re autonomous. They’re so autonomous you no longer even need insurance to drive because you don’t drive. The manufacturer is on that hook. Makes sense to me. Talk about the end of a love affair.
People and their cars, freedom, the great North American highway system enabling us to jump in and go. Sunday drives with the family. Our parents chain smoking up front in the station wagon while the kids choked in the back. I really miss those days. We’d go down and cross the St. Lawrence to have lunch in Watertown. If I was lucky I got slapped for mouthing off to the border guard. I really miss those slaps. That’s how Daddy said he loved me.
In 1970 he got a lovely blue Chevy station wagon. I remember getting into the back seat and pressing everything that looked like a button, hoping it activated some fancy electronic device. I was a little disappointed when nothing happened. He’d bought the plain-Jane package. If only I could have known the future. Plain Jane never looked so beautiful.

Massive Election Fraud Involving Thousands of Fraudulent Ballot Registrations Took Place in Michigan in 2020 – Lawless Dana Nessel and Chris Wray Let ALL OF THE PERPETRATORS Walk Scot Free!
by Jim Hoft Jan. 12, 2024 8:00 am374 Comments
At one time in American history, election fraud, voter fraud, and ballot registration fraud were perceived as a serious crime and perpetrators were frequently arrested and held accountable. Election fraud is defined as intentional corruption of the election process.
In September 2006, before the midterm elections, The Gateway Pundit reported on numerous cases of voter fraud and ballot registration fraud in the St. Louis region.
In December 2004, The Gateway Pundit later reported that six volunteers for “Operation Big Vote” entered guilty pleas to dozens of election law violations for filling out the cards with names of the dead and other bogus information at a local McDonald’s. Election officials launched an investigation after noticing that among the new voters registered was longtime Alderman Albert “Red” Villa, who died in 1990.
In February 2005, Democrat Nonaresa Montgomery who ran Operation Big Vote, a voter registration group in the St. Louis inner city, was found guilty of perjury in the St. Louis Circuit Court in her voter fraud trial. Montgomery admitted to taking from 1,000 to 1,200 voter registrations to the St. Louis Board of Elections on Feb. 7, 2001, just before the mayoral primary. Workers there launched an investigation after noticing that among the new voters was longtime Alderman Albert “Red” Villa, who died in 1990.

FBI Defies Court Order – Refuses to Turn Over Seth Rich Evidence to Attorney
by Jim Hoft Jan. 12, 2024 7:15 am512 Comments
Attorney Ty Clevenger is the bulldog attorney who has been after the DOJ and FBI for years to get to the bottom of the Seth Rich murder.
Clevenger also investigated who supplied the DNC and Podesta emails to the DNC during the 2016 election cycle This was always the key to the Trump-Russia collusion nightmare. No proof was ever offered up by the fake news legacy media, Democrats, or the intelligence community on this scandal. If Russia did not supply the DNC emails to WikiLeaks then this was more proof that the DOJ’s Russia collusion story was a complete lie used to fool the American public.
After years of denying they had anything related to Seth Rich, the FBI and DOJ were caught lying over and over again. In September 2023, a judge finally demanded the FBI and DOJ provide all they had regarding Seth Rich to Attorney Clevenger. The FBI responded requesting another 66 years before releasing the information. They wanted it moved out like the JFK assassination reports.
Then in late November, a Federal Judge ruled the FBI must hand over evidence regarding former DNC employee Seth Rich’s murder to Ty Clevenger.

Virginia Police Warn of Group of Serial Burglars Approaching Homes with Bouquets of Roses
by Cassandra MacDonald Jan. 12, 2024 10:00 am0 Comments
Virginia’s Fairfax County Police are warning the public about a “Rose Ruse” in which a group of serial burglars are approaching homes with bouquets of roses before breaking in and robbing them.
The department says the group has conducted at least five burglaries since December 28.
In a news release about the operation, the Fairfax County Police said, “In four of the burglaries, a woman approached the home with flowers and knocked on the door. When no one answered, she returned to an awaiting vehicle. Two men then forced entry into the home and stole valuables. The items stolen from the homes included jewelry, cash, and purses. The suspects have attempted to conceal their identities by obscuring and tampering with home surveillance cameras.”

U.S. Intelligence Officials Issue Warning About Potential Hezbollah Terrorist Attack on American Soil (VIDEO)
by Jim H?ft Jan. 12, 2024 7:30 am344 Comments
U.S. intelligence officials have warned of an increasing threat posed by the Lebanese Hezbollah terrorist group, suggesting that it might strike American interests in the Middle East or even within the United States, according to a report by POLITICO.
Hezbollah, which is backed by Iran, is believed to have a more sophisticated network and capability to launch attacks compared to other terrorist organizations such as ISIS. The warnings come amidst rising tensions in the region, which have escalated the risks of an assault, especially on U.S. personnel stationed overseas.
The likelihood of Hezbollah targeting U.S. forces in the Middle East is considered the more immediate threat, but officials have not discounted the possibility of attacks on American soil.
One of the officials, who was granted anonymity to discuss sensitive intelligence, expressed concern about Hezbollah’s ability to execute an attack in the U.S., stating, ‘Hezbollah could utilize their capabilities to position individuals for a potential attack. It is a matter of concern.’

William Shatner says Paramount is ‘erasing’ Captain Kirk, blames those ‘threatened’ by the character
Shatner played the iconic sci-fi role from the ’60s to the ’90s
Legendary “Star Trek” actor William Shatner recently expressed his belief that Paramount will never bring back his iconic Captain Kirk role for upcoming seasons or franchise spin-offs because they “feel threatened” by the character.
Shatner – who played the popular Capt. James T. Kirk in the original run of the sci-fi series and movies until the 1990s – told his fans on social media that he doesn’t think he will ever reprise his role in Paramount+’s current Star Trek universe, suggesting the studio’s producers are “erasing the past” of the franchise.
The 92-year-old actor mused on the subject when X users asked him about his feelings on Paramount+ making a movie with actor Patrick Stewart reprising his role in the universe as Captain Jean-Luc Picard.

War With Russia Teaches Ukraine To Value Private Guns
J.D. Tuccille
Fri, January 12, 2024 at 6:00 AM CST·5 min read
Nothing enhances your appreciation for firearms like needing one to defend your family and yourself. That’s certainly the experience of Ukrainians, say researchers. Many residents of the war-torn country—men in particular, who traditionally carry the burden of fighting and military service—recently told interviewers that they either own firearms or want to acquire them.
Ukraine Needs Guns
“Crazy thought, but those 20 million AR-15s now in this country could sure arm a lot of Ukrainians,” actor and gun-control advocate George Takei snarked a few months after Russian forces crossed the border into Ukraine. It wasn’t his intention, but a lot of Ukrainians have come to agree with him.
“Between 43 and 46 per cent of men in every age group indicated that they either already own a firearm (7 per cent overall) or would like to own one,” Gergely Hideg wrote last month for the Geneva, Switzerland-based Small Arms Survey. “Only 11 per cent of women expressed the desire to own a firearm.”
That disparity in opinion would seem to indicate a clash between the sexes until you remember that, while the demands of resisting Russia’s invasion have thrust women into new roles, Ukraine is a traditional society with corresponding expectations about gender. That relatively few women want to own guns doesn’t mean they lack appreciation for their defensive power.
“Despite women not wanting a firearm for themselves and many thinking that it is not necessary to have one, firearm proficiency appears to be regarded as an expected skill for a husband,” Hideg adds. “Nearly six in ten women interviewed believed that ‘some’ (38 per cent) or ‘most’ (19 per cent) wives in their area expect their husbands to be familiar with firearms and know how to use them.”
Why would that be? Because for two years, Ukrainians have been fighting for their independence against Russian invaders, and you don’t do that with harsh words. In their defense, Ukrainian officials lobbied allies for heavy equipment and handed small arms to their own people.
“Gun shops have sold out of some weapons, such as AR-10 and AR-15 assault rifles,” The Guardian reported the day before war began.
“We will give weapons to anyone who wants to defend the country,” President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced on February 24, 2022.
An Armed Society Is a Society Accustomed To Being Armed
Inevitably, common possession and use of rifles and pistols moved the needle on what Ukrainians expect. According to a 2022 poll, the share of the population supporting recognizing a right to civilian gun ownership increased from 23 percent the previous year to 58 percent. Also in that poll, 90 percent of respondents named “freedom” as a main value for their country.
“Firearm possession appears to be more normalized nowadays in Ukraine,” Hideg commented in the December 2023 Small Arms Survey report. Reasons cited for owning firearms include hunting (53 percent of respondents), defense against criminals (21 percent) and “protection against potential enemies” (14 percent). Potential enemies from a neighboring country? That’s a good guess.

Ryan Crownholm, a middle-aged Army veteran with luminous green eyes and a strong jawline, likes to describe himself as a health hacker. He has written on LinkedIn that, after founding and running several construction-related companies, he started to think of his own body as a data source. During the pandemic, he attached a continuous glucose monitor to his skin, bought an Oura ring to monitor his sleep, and signed up for a healthy meal-delivery service. “I started tracking each of my data points,” he wrote. “I outsourced my diet.” Every few months, a pricey concierge doctor—“kind of my longevity guy,” he told me—sends his blood for comprehensive testing. To assess his bone health and body-fat composition, Crownholm gets regular dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, or DEXA, scans, which are normally recommended for older women at risk of osteoporosis. “Quantifying everything allowed me to be successful in business,” he told me. “I think it’s the same with health.”

Oh Canada: Police Warn that Posting Images of Thieves May Violate Their Privacy Rights
While Canada eviscerates the right to free speech and association, some are apparently holding firm on the privacy rights of accused felons to warn homeowners not to post videos of thefts.
In Quebec, the police are now warning citizens not to post their doorbell videos of package thieves because they are, in the words of the spokesmen, “presumed innocent.”
Notably, these are scenes captured in public and posted by homeowners who had packages stolen from their doorsteps.
For critics, it is a continuation of misplaced priorities and policies on crime including the statement of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau that “you can’t use a gun for self-protection in Canada. It’s not a right that you have..”
It is true that you can be sued for defamation. However, that ordinarily requires fault. The police are arguing that conduct filmed on your property and visible from the street is protected by privacy even if the person is guilty of the crime.
If you use an image for commercial benefits, photos in public can pose risks. In 1998 the Supreme Court of Canada upheld the decision awarding $2000 to Pascale Claude Aubry against Éditions Vice-Versa for publishing a photo of her sitting on public steps without her knowledge. However, the court stressed that it was sold for commercial gain and had no newsworthy purpose.
Of course, deterring citizens from posting these images has a direct benefit for the police. These videos go viral and highlight the lack of enforcement and deterrence. The question is whether this is about the privacy interests of the thieves or the political interests of the police. We have seen police charge citizens for years for filming them in public. Those cases have largely been rejected.
Neighbors often shared descriptions and videos of local crime. The police department is now suggesting that such images could now get them into hot water. Oh Canada

ORWELLIAN NIGHTMARE: Biden Admin Consulted Anti-Christian Group for ‘Domestic Terrorism’ Strategy
Tyler O’Neil / @Tyler2ONeil / January 11, 2024
FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—Law-abiding Americans increasingly are convinced that their government views them as an enemy, perhaps even a “domestic terrorism threat.”
A newly unearthed video may confirm those fears.
Bureaucrats in numerous federal agencies apparently tag-teamed with the Southern Poverty Law Center, an organization that demonizes conservatives and Christians, including groups such as Alliance Defending Freedom and Moms for Liberty, in order to raise money and silence political opponents.
The federal bureaucrats reached out to the SPLC, which conservatives criticize as a far-left smear factory, as they planned to combat “the domestic terrorism threat.”
I’ve long raised the alarm about the SPLC, which gained its reputation by suing the Ku Klux Klan into bankruptcy and then weaponized that program against conservatives. Today, the center maintains a “hate map” plotting mainstream conservative and Christian groups alongside KKK chapters. It pressures the government to crack down on these groups and urges the charity and tech sectors to blacklist them.
The Video
In the fall of 2021 after President Joe Biden took office, SPLC President Margaret Huang bragged in a donor meeting that many agencies in Biden’s administration had approached the center to craft a domestic terrorism strategy.

The Texas National Guard on Wednesday seized control of a public park in Eagle Pass under Governor Greg Abbott’s (R) emergency declaration amid Biden’s border crisis.
It is estimated that more than 11 million illegal aliens – mainly military-age males – have poured over the border on Joe Biden’s open border invitation.
Eagle Pass has been hit hard as trains carrying thousands of illegals from southern Mexico make their way to the region.
Governor Abbott seized control of a public park in Eagle Pass and blocked federal agents from accessing the area.

WEF, WHO, and Globalist Elites to Discuss ‘Disease X’ at Upcoming Summit: Predictions of a Pandemic “20 Times More Deadly Than COVID-19”
by Jim H?ft Jan. 12, 2024 12:00 pm217 Comments
The World Economic Forum (WEF), headed by Klaus Schwab, is convening global leaders to brace for an imminent threat referred to as “Disease X”.
The term “Disease X” is used by the WHO to represent a hypothetical, unknown pathogen that could cause a serious international epidemic.
The world’s most exclusive club of doom and gloom is predicting a pandemic 20 times more deadly than COVID-19.
According to the WEF’s official statement, the looming threat of ‘Disease X’ has been cast into the spotlight by none other than the World Health Organization (WHO).

Elon Musk Responds, “This Must End!” After Woke Johns Hopkins DEI Office Puts out “Hit List” Against Males, Whites, Christians, Mid-aged people, Able-bodied people, Middle & owning class, English-speaking people
by Jordan Conradson Jan. 12, 2024 11:20 am680 Comments
Johns Hopkins Medicine’s Office of Diversity, Inclusion, and Health Equity (DEI) recently sparked outrage over a discriminatory “privilege list” ahead of MLK Day, which claims that nine “social identity groups” are the benefactors of “unearned benefits.”
Condemning whites, Christians, males, cis-gendered straight people, the able-bodied, middle class and property owners, the middle-aged, and English speakers, the newsletter reads, “Privilege is a set of unearned benefits given to people who are in a specific social group. Privilege operates on personal, interpersonal, cultural, and institutional levels, and it provides advantages and favors to members of dominant groups at the expense of members of other groups. In the United States, privilege is granted to people who have membership in one or more of these social identity groups.”
The letter continues, “Privilege is characteristically invisible to people who have it. People in dominant groups often believe they have earned the privileges they enjoy or that everyone could have access to these privileges if only they worked to earn them. In fact, privileges are unearned and are granted to people in the dominant groups whether they want those privileges or not, and regardless of their stated intent.”
Martin Luther King Jr. seemingly did not foresee this in his dream that all Americans “will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Still, the university included this “social identities” judgment in their MLK Day celebration announcement.

Houthis target ship carrying Russian oil after being ‘mistakenly linked to UK’ – report
We reported earlier that the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) said it received a report of a missile being fired towards a vessel in the Red Sea about 90 nautical miles south-east of Yemen’s port city of Aden.
Reuters reported that the British maritime security firm Ambrey said:
This was the second tanker mistakenly targeted by the Houthis whilst carrying Russian oil.
“A Panama-flagged tanker sighted three skiffs while transiting eastbound through the International Recommended Transit Corridor,” Reuters reported that the Ambrey report said. It said the vessel reported a missile hitting the water.
The firm assessed that the vessel was mistakenly targeted based on outdated publicly available information linking the vessel to the UK:
This appeared to be five months old but was still listed as UK-affiliated on a public maritime database.

NEW ORDER OF BARBARIANS
Note: This is a transcript of three tapes on the “New Order of Barbarians”, referred to on the tapes simply as the “new world system.” Tapes one and two were recorded in 1988 and are the recollections of Dr. Lawrence Dunegan regarding a lecture he attended on March 20, 1969 at a meeting of the Pittsburgh Pediatric Society. The lecturer at that gathering of pediatricians (identified in tape three recorded in 1991) was a Dr. Richard Day (who died in 1989). At the time Dr. Day was Professor of Pediatrics at Mount Sinai Medical School in New York. Previously he had served as Medical Director of Planned Parenthood Federation of America. Dr. Dunegan was formerly a student of Dr. Day at the University of Pittsburgh and was well acquainted with him, though not intimately. He describes Dr. Day as an insider of the “Order” and although Dr. Dunegan’s memory was somewhat dimmed by the intervening years, he is able to provide enough details of the lecture to enable any enlightened person to discern the real purposes behind the trends of our time. This is a transcript of a a loose, conversational monologue that makes for better listening than reading. The set of audio tapes may be ordered from the Florida Pro-family Forum, P.O. Box 1059, Highland City, FL 33846-1059 ($20.00).

IS THERE A POWER, A FORCE OR A GROUP OF MEN
ORGANIZING AND REDIRECTING CHANGE?
There has been much written, and much said, by some people who have looked at all the changes that have occurred in American society in the past 20 years or so, and who have looked retrospectively to earlier history of the United States, and indeed, of the world, and come to the conclusion that there is a conspiracy of sorts which influences, indeed controls. major historical events, not only in the United States, but around the world. This conspiratorial interpretation of history is based on people making observations from the outside, gathering evidence and coming to the conclusion that from the outside they see a conspiracy. Their evidence and conclusions are based on evidence gathered in retrospect. Period. I want to now describe what I heard from a speaker in 1969 which in several weeks will now be 20 years ago. The speaker did not speak in terms of retrospect, but rather predicting changes that would be brought about in the future. The speaker was not looking from the outside in, thinking that he saw conspiracy, rather, he was on the inside, admitting that, indeed, there was an organized power, force, group of men, who wielded enough influence to determine major events involving countries around the world. And he predicted, or rather expounded on, changes that were planned for the remainder of this century. As you listen, if you can recall the situation, at least in the United States in 1969 and the few years there after, and then recall the kinds of changes which have occurred between then and now, almost 20 years later, I believe you will be impressed with the degree to which the things that were planned to be brought about have already been accomplished. Some of the things that were discussed were not intended to be accomplished yet by 1988. [Note: the year of this recording] but are intended to be accomplished before the end of this century. There is a timetable; and it was during this session that some of the elements of the timetable were brought out. Anyone who recalls early in the days of the Kennedy Presidency .. the Kennedy campaign .. when he spoke of .. progress in the decade of the 60’s”: that was kind of a cliché in those days – “the decade of the 60’s.” Well, by 1969 our speaker was talking about the decade of the 70’s, the decade of the 80’s, and the decade of the 90’s. So that .. I think that terminology that we are looking at .. looking at things and expressing things, probably all comes from the same source. Prior to that time I don’t remember anybody saying “the decade of the 40’s and the decade of the 50’s. So I think this overall plan and timetable had taken important shape with more predictability to those who control it, sometime in the late 50’s. That’s speculation on my part. In any event, the speaker said that his purpose was to tell us about changes which would be brought about in the next 30 years or so…so that an entirely new world-wide system would be in operation before the turn of the century. As he put it, “We plan to enter the 21st Century with a running start.” [emphasis supplied]
“EVERYTHING IS IN PLACE AND NOBODY CAN STOP US NOW…”
He said, as we listened to what he was about to present, he said, “Some of you will think I’m talking about Communism. Well, what I’m talking about is much bigger than Communism!” At that time he indicated that there is much more cooperation between East and West than most people realize. In his introductory remarks he commented that he was free to speak at this time. He would not have been able to say what he was about to say, even a few years earlier. But he was free to speak at this time because now, and I’m quoting here, “everything is in place and nobody can stop us now.” That’s the end of that quotation. He went on to say that most people don’t understand how governments operate and even people in high positions in governments, including our own, don’t really understand how and where decisions are made. He went on to say that .. he went on to say that people who really influence decisions are names that for the most part would be familiar to most of us, but he would not use individuals’ names or names of any specific organization. But. That, if he did, most of the people would be names that were recognized by most of his audience. He went on to say that they were not primarily people in public office, but people of prominence who were primarily known in their private occupations or private positions. The speaker was a doctor of medicine, a former professor at a large Eastern university, and he was addressing a group of doctors of medicine, about 80 in number. His name would not be widely recognized by anybody likely to hear this, and so there is no point in giving his name. The only purpose in recording this is that it may give a perspective to those who hear it regarding the changes which have already been accomplished in the past 20 years or so, and a bit of a preview to what at least some people are planning for the remainder of this century … so that we, or they, would enter the 21st Century with a flying start. Some of us may not enter that Century. His purpose in telling our group about these changes that were to be brought about was to make it easier for us to adapt to these changes. Indeed, as he quite accurately said, “they would be changes that would be very surprising, and in some ways difficult for people to accept,” and he hoped that we, as sort of his friends, would make the adaptation more easily if we knew somewhat beforehand what to expect.
“PEOPLE WILL HAVE TO GET USED TO CHANGE…”
Somewhere in the introductory remarks he insisted that nobody have a tape recorder and that nobody take notes, which for a professor was a very remarkable kind of thing to expect from an audience. Something in his remarks suggested that there could be negative repercussions against him if his .. if it became widely known what he was about to say to .. to our group .. if it became widely known that indeed he had spilled the beans, so to speak. When I heard first that, I thought maybe that was sort of an ego trip, somebody enhancing his own importance. But as the revelations unfolded, I began to understand why he might have had some concern about not having it widely known what was said, although this .. although this was a fairly public forum where he was speaking, (where the) remarks were delivered. But, nonetheless, he asked that no notes be taken .. n

“She Should be Criminally Liable for This – I Think We Should Be Entitled to Damages” – President Trump Hits Letitia James Outside Courtroom and Fires Warning Shot at New York State (VIDEO)
by Jim Hoft Jan. 12, 2024 2:20 pm22 Comments
President Donald Trump made comments on Friday outside the courtroom before crooked Judge Arthur Engoron ruled on the bogus charges brought against him and the Trump family for taking out loans and repaying those same loans in the state of New York.
For some reason this is a crime in New York State.
President Trump told reporters that Letitia James should be criminally charges. He also said the Trump family and Trump businesses should be entitled to damages from the lies told about him in this New York courtroom.
And, once again, President Trump fired a warning shot at New York. If the crooked leaders in the Empire State believe they can prosecute and persecute businesses at will, they will soon lose those businesses. We will watch and see.

Hunter Biden agreed to testify to Congress after the House Judiciary Committee approved a resolution to hold him in contempt of Congress.
Congressional Republicans previously subpoenaed Hunter Biden for a closed-door deposition related to his influence-peddling and family corruption.
Hunter Biden last month said he would only testify “at a public hearing.”
Earlier this week Hunter made a shock appearance on Capitol Hill as lawmakers convened a hearing in advance of the vote to hold the first son in contempt. Later that day Republicans voted to approve a contempt resolution.
The Committee voted along party line 23-14 to approve the resolution after Hunter Biden defied a subpoena and refused to testify in a closed-door deposition.
The full House of Representatives is expected to vote on the resolution to hold Hunter in contempt early next week.
Hunter’s lawyer blasted James Comer and Jim Jordan on Friday.
“If you issue a new proper subpoena, now that there is a duly authorized impeachment inquiry, Mr. Biden will comply for a hearing or deposition,” Lowell wrote in a letter to the Republican lawmakers on Friday.
“We will accept such a subpoena on Mr. Biden’s behalf.”
Hunter’s attorney Abbe Lowell warned Chairmen James Comer and Jim Jordan that their subpoenas were “legally invalid and cannot form a legal basis to proceed with your misdirected and impermissible contempt resolution.”

Rantz: Seattle teacher told students identifying as ‘straight’ is offensive
A controversial Seattle teacher allegedly told students that identifying as “straight” is offensive. He even scolded some of his male students for being a “product of the patriarchy that teaches young boys not to care.” It resulted in a parent filing a complaint with Chief Sealth High School. In defending the teacher, Seattle Public Schools (SPS) offered what appears to be a verifiably false statement to the media.
Tenth-grade Ethnic Studies World History teacher and self-identified communist Ian Golash asked students to complete a “Social Identity Wheel” worksheet, according to the parent, who asked for anonymity. It asks students to explain their various identities, including racial, ethnic, gender, socio-economic status, physical, emotional, or developmental disabilities, and sexual orientation. The worksheet is intended to tell students that their identities determine whether they receive unearned privilege or oppression.
The parent’s 15-year-old son labeled himself “straight.” Golash took issue with that word “because it implies that to not be straight is to be ‘crooked’ which could have a negative connotation.”

Violent gun-related crime in six of eight Ohio cities targeted in a recently-released study commissioned by Attorney General Dave Yost dropped—in some cases by double digits—in the year after the state’s “constitutional carry” law took effect, according to a recently published study by the Center for Justice Research.
The Center is a partnership between the Attorney General’s office and Bowling Green University. The study covered the two-year period from June 2021 through June 2023. The permitless carry law took effect in June 2022, so the report covers the period from one year before to one year after the law became effective.
Yost authored an Op-Ed at National Review, which said in the headline, “Ohio Just Disproved a Gun-Control Talking Point.” The study looked at eight major Buckeye State cities: Akron, Canton, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton, Parma and Toledo. Here are the major talking points:
