When did we have drive by shootings on snowmobiles?

StuartJ:
Off all our screwy gun laws in Nebraska thats the one that  made me laugh when it came up in conceal carry class. Guns and snowmobiles are a problem?

I don't own a snowmobile so its not coming up.  But still.

Mntnman:
It’s because they used to chase coyotes with them. Not the kind that traffic people...

StuartJ:
My brother-in-law used to trap coyotes. Offered my a skin once. I declined.  Didn't know what I would do with it.

I do have  rattle from a rattle snake he gave me in a drawer some where. He has a grudge against them since one killed his dog.

SemperFiGuy:
So.....
While teaching NE CHP classes, which require inclusion of the Guns-and-Snowmobiles Warning, several possible reasons for this special case were considered in the classroom discussions.

I decided to track down the official authentic origins of this rather odd legal requirement.  Figuring the NE Game and Parks folks were the logical originators, I called them down in Lincoln.   Talked to a Nice Lady.  Asked her.   Silence on the phone for quite some time.  Finally she sez:  "I don't really know."   More silence.   Then, "I'll let you talk to Old Roscoe.  He's been here forever."

Clikety-clik.  Phone transfers.   Old Roscoe gets on line.  I ask him same question.

Old Roscoe takes a very long time to respond.  Finally he sez, "It's Always Been That Way."

At which point I said THWI and directed my weary curiosity to the next item on the list.   (Which happened to be US Military Bugle Calls, as I sorta remember.)

FWIW
