arrested for omaha open carry
RLMoeller:
The problem with the article is the lack of facts about why he was ticketed. The average citizen reading this article is going to assume that openly carrying is illegal. It's stupid little details like this that shows how the media works against us. I'm willing to accept that sometimes that is unintentional on the part of the writer. That does not make it acceptable to me. Journalism doesn't exist any longer in the form it used to. It's more about making a catchy headline than substance in the report.

Very good point. The liberally biased news media, which seems to be most of it, does not serve the public well. Whether intentional or not, leaving out key facts is poor journalism at best, and propaganda at worst.

It would appear from the reading of the CHP Act and 430, that Omaha, or any other entity, could still ban concealed carry in the parks if they are posted such as private property can be posted. I'm amazed that the city of Omaha was able to pass any kind of ordinance on open carry in public. On city property, such as a park, I can see where they could get away with it. Those Omaha folks really need to get on the ball and get rid of the council members and mayor who promulgated such unconstitutional ordinances. Without knowing more about this particular case, it's hard to say. I would, however, love to see it go to court and the Omaha ordinances be declared invalid such as in the DC vs Heller case.

Is it possible to get a copy of the police report in few days? If we had all the facts, and he was only breaking an unconstitutional law, and all of us contacted the NRA, maybe we could help this guy out with a major lawsuit against Omaha and have their ordinances declared unconstitutional.
Omaha, the place where you need a gun the most, and the hardest place to legally carry.
