More double talk from the capital.

No pre-emption in the Nebraska Concealed Handgun Act because legistators say that local control is too important.

Time for some e-mails.

Nebraska Unicam Gives OK To Statewide Smoking Ban
 
LINCOLN, Neb. -- A statewide smoking ban cities and counties can't opt out of has been approved by the Legislature.
 
The final vote came on Friday morning.

 

The ban on smoking in bars, restaurants and almost all other workplaces across the state will go into effect in June 2009.

Opponents of the bill said it could cripple businesses, while supporters said it would protect the health of residents.

Local control died with the Civil war over "slavery." (Not to mention cecession which is not prohibited in the Constitution then or now... Now if the South had "gone to court..." but they "opened fire" on Ft. Sumner and Lincoln could "put down" a rebellion... protect federal troops/ property, etc.)

Local attorneys have high paid easy jobs and are not going to cross the politicians unless they think it will get them fired/unelected. Gunnies don't have that kind of "clout..." Not yet...

Biggest political figure against smoking, AGAINST SMOKING, in the 20th Century???

You had me scared that 430had been sabotaged....... this story was from last year.....
The Right to Keep and BEAR Arms is enshrined explicitly in both our State and Federal Constitutions, yet most of us are afraid to actually excercise that Right, for very good reason: there is a good chance of being arrested........ and  THAT is a damned shame.  III.
