i love this line "He’s known as the single most powerful senator in the Legislature, a power some say he abuses from time to time." and he is still doing the same ****
depserv:
I think it should be pointed out that according to FBI data more people are killed with so-called personal weapons, which means hands, feet, teeth, etc. than by all rifles combined. And just one type of rifle is supposedly so dangerous that gun control crusaders have been trying to outlaw it for decades. So hands and feet must be pretty dangerous.
That means that if it's illegal to have a rifle within reach (unless you have purchased a permission slip to exercise your constitutional right to bear arms), it must also be illegal for your hands and feet to be in reach of your hands. This might create a problem with compliance. And if you are wearing gloves, are your hands concealed weapons (even though they might be printing)?
Regarding Ernie Chambers, I'd like to point out again that he is only a powerful senator because the RINO majority gives him power. If I read the information on Ballotpedia right, our legislature contains 12 Democrats, 35 Republicans, 1 Independent, and 1 Libertarian (who I assume would be pro-freedom). With that makeup, or anything close to that makeup, there is no reason for Nebraska to have gun laws as restrictive as we have, and no reason Ernie Chambers should be anything but a minor annoyance. Unless we are electing RINOs instead of real Republicans.

I agree with what you are saying, but keep in mind that Chambers is a bully and a big reason he gets away with his antics is that others are afraid to stand up to him and be subjected to the ridicule and obstructionism he is focusing on others. If they were to all realize what you are saying and stand up to him as a group he would become far more ineffectual. But that has, unfortunately, a slim chance of happening because he has created a Pavlovian type response in the experienced Senators who want to maintain the dignity of the Unicameral instead of represent their constituents.

I agree with what you are saying my friend, but would say it more succinctly with these words: the Nebraska Republican Party has no cajones. They should be reminded of this, and reminded that if they do not have what it takes to do their duty, they should step down and let someone willing to stand up to Chambers take their place. With the numbers so much in their favor, the situation we have is simply not acceptable, and is a black mark on the state Republican Party.
