Can Neb. get a gun law passed like Georgia did?
ILoveCats:
Well, gathering signatures to get it on the ballot would be the only way to make changes until Mr. Chambers runs up against his term limits again, right?
Have you all seen this nationwide Gallup poll? http://www.gallup.com/poll/1645/guns.aspx#4. It's a pretty interesting measure of the country's thoughts on firearms and is fairly current. There is a ton of data to be analyzed in here, and many indications that are very positive in terms of gun rights. I believe the last couple years has really been a gun-buying renaissance in terms of new shooters joining the sport or buying for personal defense. The buying frenzy was not simply existing owners buying more.
One interesting anomaly though is the question of, do you own a gun. That one dipped down with a few more people saying no, when so many of the other answers trended in a conflicting direction. I believe that's simply the result of people being afraid to say yes, fearing confiscatory legislation.

There sure is a lot of interesting info in there....the one that shocked me the most was the very high percentage of people that favored a handgun ban in the past, there were years over 50%...
I would agree with you that a lot of people wouldn't answer truthfully & a quite a few gun owners I know wouldn't even bother to answer a survey at all....
I know that I wanted to tell my Dr. to eff off when he asked me about FireArms ownership at my last physical....of course he would be one of the first to know if I was on depression medication or similar that could restrict my rights.
TwoSwords:
I'll post this again, take this to your Senators and ask: Why no massive problems in KS? And look at all the rights they have. Border state. Very similar.

KS is effectively a carry everywhere state, but without all the press GA received. Put in the metal detectors in city hall or zip it on NO CCW in there.
Sebilus vetoed CCW until they voted out enough senators out to override the veto.
That is about the only option, get them voted out, and start picking away at the list in the PDF.
Don't try to do it all at once, it will never happen. There are to many RINO's in the Unicameral. As conservative as Nebraska is the UNICAM is not very.
grumpy old man:
Thanks TwoSwords. That is short & to the point and wonderful to have!

We can pass anything we want with 33 votes if we can move it out of the Judiciary committee.
How many here, asking if it is possible, have volunteered to help Andy Allen with the work load at NFOA-PAF?
*****in' about stuff on the interwebz is not the same as actually doing the groundwork that builds a more 2A friendly Judiciary Committee.
Andy needs a lot of help to get things accomplished. Contact him today and volunteer your time and your money. The November election push is starting right now!
