Hurt and dissapointed... but very proud. Cabelas open carry.

FWIW I am a HUGE proponent of open carry when done properly.
Cabela's DOES have indeed signage saying all guns must be cased, except for concealed carry. THIS is not an open carry issue. Any business can tell you not to open carry in their establishment. You DO NOT have the RIGHT to carry in their store, regardless of Nebraska being an open carry state. It is NOT public property and they can tell you to case them or leave, period. Argue with them and you might be having a very unpleasant conversation with the La Vista PD or SCSO. Clearly you are the one that needs to gain a better understanding of the law. Nothing hurts our cause more than this special kind of stupidity.

barmandr:
They do have it posted at the doors that all firearms must be cased/checked, but lawfully concealed weapons are allowed.

ragedefined:
yes they can obviously tell us to leave, which we did. As far as how we did it, im fine with how I did it. wouldn't change a thing. thanks. Its private property and they can deny us from entry with an open carried weapon. I have open carried my handgun their close to 20 times with no issue. Thought we would try our hand at the publics and staffs response of rifle open carry. didn't go as planned that is all and I can be disappointed about that. Other thing I personally don't care who opposes me or anyone from open carrying a rifle, shotgun, handgun. It is a gun no matter what shape or caliber and if it is legal to carry it then be my guest. the people fear rifles because the media has taught them to. Its not the gun its the people. I really thought id get a different response from you guys.

AND THIS

--- Quote from: ragedefined on January 11, 2014, 04:40:29 PM ---I of course told them laws and we went back and forth asking why I can open carry a pistol but not a rifle?
--- End quote ---

The law doesn't matter in THEIR building. What you were doing was ANYTHING but legal the split second between them telling you that you were not allowed to do it and you starting to argue with them.

ragedefined:
yeah because in those wonderful quotes you pulled I said the words "argued" "yelled" "screamed" "flipped them off" "cursed" "got in their face". Yeah used all those in the quotes there.
you weren't there you wouldn't know. interesting you assume that I was arguing with them about what I can and cannot do. Merely asked why I could open carry a pistol in their establishment and not a rifle.
Funny thing is they actually said they supported me in what I was doing but because of the position they were in at cabelas they had to ask us to leave.
I was asking clarification, that is all.
As far as my "special stupidity" you judge by an unemotional paragraph I quickly typed up using very simple examples and not going into deep specifics. Round of applause for you 00buck.
