Mali:
tstuart34,
Should you pursue this with the County Attorney please keep us informed as I, for one, am curious how this plays out.

Yeah but is this first and foremost a "state" issue? I think the first question is to Lancaster county and/or the city of Lincoln to find out who gave authority to Cheech and Chong, the farmers market organizers, to post the city street. If I wanted to take my kids to Lazlo's for lunch I'd have to break the law to walk down the sidewalk?
I still wonder if anyone gave them the authority or if they just put up their sign unilaterally with no permission to do so.

Joe Kelly is a good man and Pro 2A. My last two cents ... now get back to Youtube ....

I think it is interesting that the city "has the authority" to post public property. This subject come up occasionally on the forum in conjunction with city parks or city libraries. If it is any help, Lincoln's city code referenced on the city libraries' "no weapons" posting is 9.36.130:
" Possession of Firearms and Dangerous Weapons in City and/or County Facilities; Prohibited. It shall be unlawful for any person to knowingly possess or cause to be present a firearm or other dangerous weapon in a city and/or county facility."
While the above city code references "facilities", I would bet this is what the city would point to when stating they can ban carry in public spaces. I am curious who and/or what gives the city the authority to do this. In my opinion, publicly owned property should not be able to be posted.

My last trip to the farmers market this past weekend and I did not see any signs or posters on the street itself pertaining to no firearms. They still had a no pets sign.
However the website still says no firearms permitted. Just an update for everyone.
