arrested for omaha open carry
Hardwood83:
Not to hi-jack the thread, but I would like to respond to the 'NRA doesn't want to rock the boat'. I would reply the NRA spent $40 million to defeat Obama, the GOA (for example) spent their time & effort saying 'McCain is a gun grabber'. What was more helpful? The NRA is certainly not perfect or infallible but are very effective by the enemies own admission. Do they have to pick their battles? To a degree, but that is not the same as compromise. I am an NRA Life/Endowment member so don't claim to be objective, but wouldn't hesitate to call them out if they veered off course.

I'm in total agreement.

Sorry, guys, I really don't mean to bag on the NRA. I really do think they're a great organization and I appreciate what they do for us, even if I don't always agree with the battles they do choose.

Not a problem. "Bag" on anything you want, it's your opinion, right? The NRA isn't everything I'd like it to be either, but without it, we'd probably be lucky if we could carry a straw and a pocket full of peas around town. :)

I seriously hope this Medlock individual was prepared for this encounter. That is, he is well versed on the case law and the ordinances set in Omaha.
There are plenty of people who get screwed by stupid laws and legislation, but if Medlock is willing to take it the distance, he could do some serious good for all Nebraska residents and the Second Amendment.
