Interesting take on boycotting an Ohio event on behalf of Jeffrey Jordan

Yesterday I posted a note about Jeffrey Jordan's indictment for concealed weapons charges in Ohio. I placed a link to that note on Packing.org, which has generated some interesting response from High Power shooters who plan to boycott attendance at Camp Perry, Ohio in protest. An example from miller1952:


You should be aware that the felony indictment of Jeffery Jordan for the "crime" of traveling through Ashland County and failing to secure his legally owned handguns in his trunk is viewed with some level of alarm in the shooting community. I am advising everyone I know to avoid Camp Perry in the future. Over the last few years rifle matches with three day venues like Perry have sprouted up in Missouri and Minnesota as an alternative to the expense of Perry. If the State of Ohio follows through with ruining this young man's life via a felony conviction I think you can expect a widespread grassroots "Boycott Ohio" movement in the gun owning community. Take a hard look at K-Mart.

It'll be interesting to see if the organizers of the Camp Perry events will take notice.
