NO CCW in Lincoln City Parks - NFOA Legal thoughts?

<< < (3/6) > >>

bkoenig:
I agree with Dan - I think the city council is a dead end.  If the SAF would be willing to assist I think that would be the best route.

NE Bull:
I would have to agree with that, BUT, why not go the "civil" route first?  My thoughts are to approach the Council with a well thought out / planned argument- BUT only, with the SAF card up our sleeve. 
Much like we did with Omaha. We make contact and when the council snubs it's nose, we smack 'em with a court case!  Then hopes are the come contacting us to see what can be done.

(OR we tell 'em it's good for UNL athletics and we are golden. ;) )

It is very different. The city is prohibited from regulating possession of a firearm by a CHP holder. The city also owns the public roads and some sidewalks. Does that allow them to ban any pedestrian on that city property from carrying?

Attorney General Bruning has issued an official opinion on that question...they can not.

Oh, I know. I was just trying to get a discussion going.
