Dan ,
 May be a stupid question but, I know you said breakfast, but since we have special guests could this even remotely be considered a political rally or fundraiser?

We have always ruled that as a NO at any of our other coffees.

Since this is an informal gathering, with no political fundraising or specific political agenda it is not a violation to carry concealed.

I'll do my best to not disappoint you.  I can even bring extras to share.

Stebbing was also on KLIN 1400 "drive time Lincoln" tonight. Sounded great.  He slammed the Mayor's support for raising Lincoln sales tax a quarter of a percent in order to pay for new emergency services telephony systems. Stebbing said they knew these systems had a ~20 year shelf life when they bought them, and now it's really slimy to basically tell the public that "we can't keep you safe unless you let us raise taxes."   ::)  He also lamented the low level of police staffing in Lincoln.

As someone who has applied a couple times, I can honestly say it is their own fault. They basically only accept the top 5%.
It is highly likely the above post may offend you. I'm fine with that.

I liked what Mr. Stebbing had to say. Think he would be a helpful mayor. Enjoyed the get together but arrived a little late to meet many of the other members. Did meet another Ikes member that might turn out to be a new shooting bud.
 Thanks.

I want to think everyone that came out today.  I think it was a good (albeit quick) discussion.  I, too, feel Andy has a good grasp on the troubles at City Hall and just might be the man to fix it. 
Stay tuned to the NFOA PAF. We will be trying to get Lincoln area Gun Owners in contact with the candidates.  I have a good feeling we have a real chance at shaking things up down at city hall.
